This Is Bigger Than One Program: It’s About Building a Future Where No Youth Is Left Behind

In the heart of Maricopa County, too many young people are facing crisis alone. They’re balancing adult responsibilities at 14. They’re navigating grief, housing instability, community violence, and mental health challenges. And most of the time, they’re doing it without a safety net.

That’s where Melabiz Community Hub comes in.

We are a youth-centered, trauma-informed nonprofit built for young people who are often left out of traditional support systems. We don’t just provide programs—we show up for real-life situations that youth and families face every single day. We offer free mental health care, workforce development, leadership labs, peer mentorship, drop-in support, and community healing events all under one roof.

And now, we’re calling on you to help us keep this going—and take it further.

Why Your Support Is Urgent

We serve youth ages 12–24—many of whom are impacted by the justice system, housing instability, or generational trauma. These young people don’t need handouts. They need to be seen, supported, and surrounded by adults who show up with consistency, care, and love.

That’s what we do.

But we can’t do it alone. Your support allows us to:

• Provide free therapy and peer-led healing circles

• Offer hygiene kits, food, and emergency transportation

• Run youth-designed workshops on safety, emotional regulation, and decision-making

• Train young leaders through leadership and mentoring opportunities

• Equip youth with media, storytelling, and public speaking tools

• Support families in crisis with wraparound resources

Every dollar you give helps remove barriers and create opportunities for youth who are working hard just to stay afloat.

What Your Support Makes Possible

Your donations go directly toward high-impact, harm-reduction work:

• $25 helps us build a confidence or hygiene kit for a youth in crisis

• $50 covers meals and snacks for one week of peer support sessions

• $100 provides a therapy session, conflict resolution training, or youth stipend

• $250 allows us to host a youth-led event or workshop

• $500 helps fund transportation, mental health support, and youth leadership development

Whether a young person needs a ride to therapy, help with a resume, a safe place to cry, or a platform to lead—we’re here. And when you give, you’re standing beside them, too.

This Is Community Care in Action

We’ve watched youth who came in quiet and guarded go on to lead circles, co-facilitate workshops, and speak at graduation events. We’ve helped young people access college, jobs, therapy, housing resources, and their own sense of power. And we’ve done it without judgment—meeting them exactly where they are.

That’s what makes us different.

We’re not a one-size-fits-all service. We’re a home base. We’re a healing space. And we’re growing a community where young people can rise, speak, lead, and rebuild trust with the adults around them.
