WRYM'S 2024 Program Success:  A Year of Impact!

This past year has been one of growth, resilience, and meaningful change, thanks to the hard work of our team, the dedication of our volunteers, and the unwavering support from our community.

Here's a snapshot of our 2024 success:

Success Rate:  Our program boasted an impressive success rate of 91%, helping 27 young men transition from crisis to stability.

Individuals Served:  96 youth were supported between our Outreach, Aftercare, and Transitional Housing programs.

Education and Employment:  90% of the youth in Transitional Housing continued or graduated secondary school, and 45% of the residents acquired or continued employment!

These statistics reflect more than just data and percentages - they represent real lives changed and futures made brighter.  We couldn't have done it without the collective effort of everyone involved.

We Did It!  Thank You for Helping Us Exceed Our Goal!

Thanks to your overwhelming generosity, we raised an astonishing $81,560 during our Season of Giving!

Not only did we meet our initial goal, but your support also allowed us to surpass the matching challenge - and then some!  This achievement wouldn't have been possible without the kindness and dedication of every single donor, partner, and advocate who rallied behind our mission.

Your contributions are more than just numbers; they are a testament to the power of community and the profound impact we can make together.  Every dollar is invested in ending homelessness for youth in Windsor-Essex.

We can't thank you enough for your trust, enthusiasm, and belief in our cause.  This success belongs to all of us, and we're excited to show you the difference your generosity will make in the months ahead.

From all of us at WRYM, thank you for being part of this incredible journey.  Let's keep this momentum going as we work together to create a brighter tomorrow.
