To reduce barriers to help youth in Lewis County thrive!
We are a 501c3 nonprofit organization. Our board currently consists of community members who have a passion to help local youth.
We partner with the Lewis County Juvenile Court and the Lewis County Youth Mentorship Program.
We help support outings for mentors and mentees and we help host the annual Back to School Resource Fair
Eliminate barriers to allow all youth in Lewis County to participate in extracurricular activities such as sports, camps, clubs, driver's education, career exploration, and more.
We desire to help create a community where youth thrive in school and are connected outside of social media.
We received feedback after the School Supply Resource Fair and one of the biggest requests was for more shoes. Our focus was school supplies but we also tried to gather as much clothes and shoes in a short period of time as possible because we knew the need was there.
After the event, it was bitter sweet to see many pairs of little tattered shoes left behind. These shoes were left behind because children took them off to put on a pair that were donated for the event.
We have a tentative date for the 2024 School Supply Resource Fair which will be released later on in the year.
Our goal is to collect 2000 pairs of shoes so every child that comes to the event has an opportunity to walk away with a confident new pep in their step for the school year. It's a massive goal but we know this community can rise to that challenge and help. We are starting this mission now.
Please help us meet this goal by donating new or gently used shoes for both boys and girls of all shoe sizes. Walmart often puts shoes on clearance for a $1 so keep your eyes out and your heart open for such great deals!
Message for a time and location to drop off donated shoes. You can also mail a monetary donation to our POB at POB 1293 Napavine, WA 98565.
Thank you to our sponsors and community partners. Together, we can pave a positive future!
We would love to add your name to the list of supporters! Send us an email if you are interested in being a donor or a sponsor!
More information will be released in 2024 about the 2024 School Resource Fair. Don’t miss out!
