Why does the shelter need donations?
New Morning's 24-Hour Emergency Youth Shelter, like all our programs and services, is entirely non-profit, and its basic operation relies solely on contributions from our donors and sponsors. Beyond basic operations, however, we strive to provide the most comfortable, home-like environment possible for the youth who stay at our Shelter, and sometimes we must rely on extra donations to offer enough of both basic supplies, like new socks and toothbrushes, and small luxuries, like personal CD players and sports equipment.
Every donation made to our Youth Shelter, whether of money, basic necessities, or fun creature comforts, can make a substantial impact on the quality of environment enjoyed by the youth who stay at our Shelter. Donations may be made on-site at our Shelter or counseling offices, or for more information, please contact the Shelter or our Placerville clinic at the numbers listed here. Thank you!
