Standing Together This Season: Our Community Needs Us More Than Ever

October, 28, 2025. Phoenix, AZ

As we approach the end of the year, we’re reminded that this season is about connection, compassion, and community. It’s a time to reflect on what we have — and to extend that abundance to others.

Yet this year, many families in our community are facing greater uncertainty. With the ongoing government shutdown and the potential pause in food assistance programs, families who were already stretched thin now face new challenges.

At New Pathways for Youth, we know that when one part of our community struggles, we all feel it. That’s why our work has never been more essential. Our program coordinators are more than mentors — they are connectors. Every day, they guide youth and families toward resources, organizations, and opportunities that help them meet basic needs, find stability, and open doors to a brighter future.

We know there are many causes you could support — and we are deeply humbled by everyone who chooses to give to New Pathways for Youth. Your generosity directly fuels transformation, helping youth and families not only make it through difficult times but discover the possibilities that lie beyond them.

This holiday season, we invite you to share your light and make a tangible difference through our Holiday Drive. Every contribution — big or small — helps ensure our youth and families feel cared for and celebrated.

What your Donation can do:

  • $50 provides small, meaningful items like coloring books for teens, art supplies, or treats to brighten a young person’s holiday.
  • $100 covers winter essentials like warm socks and hygiene kits, offering youth comfort and reminding them that someone cares.
  • $250 sponsors a complete, personalized holiday gift package for one youth.
  • $500 supports gifts and essentials for an entire family, helping them celebrate together.
  • $1,000 funds multiple gift packages, ensuring every young person in our program feels remembered and valued.
