HFY Hits Fundraising HOME RUN Thanks to the Long Island Ducks!
Recently a group of dedicated Hope For Youth volunteers worked at the concession stands at the Long Island Ducks’ stadium earning money for Hope For Youth programs.
Jeanette, an HFY Suffolk Intensive Case Manager, volunteered her time for a second year. She was excited to how many of her co-workers came out in support of this exciting fundraising opportunity. “It’s great to give back and get others involved with what we do here at HFY. I even recruited my Mom as a volunteer!”
Fundraiser like this one are a big hit for Hope For Youth. It allows us to purchase certain necessary items for our kids that aren’t covered by contracts. They are also a fun and charitable way to get involved in the community.
Hope For Youth’s next Fundraiser at the Long Island Ducks’ stadium is September 20th. Can you join us? We’ll be supporting our youngest volunteers: an ambitions group of sixteen-year-old vendors in training! Then we’ll go out with a “bang” as the fireworks go off!
