Community Support: HOPE 4 Youth
HOPE 4 Youth is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to helping young people experiencing homelessness in the northern part of the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metro Area. What started as a grassroots initiative has become a valuable community resource that helps hundreds of youth at risk of or experiencing homelessness.
Strategically Focused on Supporting Youth Homelessness
When someone walks into the HOPE 4 Youth Drop-In Center in Anoka, they enter a space where everyone can feel valued and supported unconditionally. Thanks to the community’s support, the center provides a clothing closet, grab-and-go food and hygiene needs, laundry facilities, computer access, transportation support, and more. The team at HOPE 4 Youth provides one-on-one support through case management, allowing the youth to stop, regroup, and reflect.
Our Partnership Matters
The amazing work done by HOPE 4 Youth is possible through donations and the tireless work of volunteers. 21st Century Bank is honored to be one of the many organizations that have supported their efforts through sponsorships and donations.
Several 21st Century Bank team members have volunteered their time outside these events or helped raise awareness. Leading efforts is Joan Wood, from the Business Banking Team, who has long supported the organization.
“They really are so passionate about what they do,” Wood said. “It feels like a family to them. Their passion for what they do is what stands out to me.”
