Donate to our We Care Shop
The YPN We Care Shop is an incentive project that allows families to earn points in a variety of ways; attending group meetings, going to prenatal visits, receiving their high school diploma or GED, getting their child immunized on schedule, accessing counseling, and many other healthy behavior choices for themselves and their families. The points are then taken to the YPN We Care Shop and used to purchase much-needed items for their families.
Every donation counts
All of the items on the shelves in the YPN We Care Shop come from generous individuals within our community. YPN has created an incentive model that allows parents to learn and earn, having access to baby care items, and helping them save funds in their budget for things like rent and utilities. Your donation allows YPN to provide this service, together, we Support, Educate and Empower families in our community!
“We we’re able to meet other parents going through similar things by joining YPN group and the support is so helpful; without the We Care Shop, diapers and wipes alone would have been a huge financial burden. The kids love the toys, too.”
~Val & Jeremy, YPN Mom & Dad
