Today, on Giving Tuesday we are talking a lot about “filling cups”—because that’s what your support truly does.

If you’re not in a place to give this year, we hope you’ll give to yourself. Take a moment to rest, recharge, and fill your own cup.

And if you are able to give, your support helps us reach more clients that we serve daily as a non-profit. We could not do this without you.

Thank you for being part of our community. Whether you're caring for yourself, supporting YSC, or both — we’re grateful you’re here.

With gratitude,
YSC Staff

As we get ready for the holidays, we have many people calling to see what they can help YSC with & help with all the clients we serve. So we have made a needs list that we utilize for client’s needs, & and our YSC needs list of things we utilize daily to keep everything running smoothly.

Your gift in any amount supports our mission to help meet all of our client & community needs, & by helping our non-profit run smoothly. Happy Holidays!!

Veterans Day is more than a moment of remembrance. It is a call to carry forward the values of service, leadership, integrity, and responsibility in all that we do. At YSC, we are proud to apply those same principles to our business each and every day.

On this Veteran’s Day, your courage and commitment set a powerful example for all of us. Thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and your continued contributions to our communities.

With deep respect and gratitude,
~The YSC Staff
