Lost N Found Youth hasn't added a story.
On any given night over 750 LGBT youth are homeless on the streets of Atlanta.
As Atlanta’s only non-profit organization dedicated to taking homeless lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth off the street and into more permanent housing, Lost-n-Found Youth Inc. knows it takes more than a village to raise our kids.
Our client population is ever-changing, each with a variety of needs. In just three years we’ve helped more than 400 youth, some we’ve had to turn away because our current facility is just too small.
To meet that need Lost-n-Found Youth Inc. is renovating a 5,900 sq. ft. transitional facility and drop-in center that will triple our capacity to help local LGBT youth off the streets, but we can’t do it without you.
Purchasing an engraved brick from Lost-n-Found aids our youth in several ways: the proceeds will help underwrite the costs of the renovations and the bricks themselves will be used in the patios and walkways of our new transitional home with words of support reminding our most troubled clients that others believe in their success.
Our goal is 2,000 bricks. Meeting that goal would bring at least $200,000 toward the $1 million capital campaign that will complete our buildout, staff our transitional home, provide additional case management services and so much more.
ABOUT YOUR BRICK
Bricks to support Lost-n-Found are available in two sizes:
4” x 8“ - $125
and
8” x 8“ - $250
The bricks will have smooth surfaces and beveled edges.
Engraving is included in your donation. Small bricks are limited to three lines, 18 letters each. Large bricks are limited to six lines, 18 letters each. Counts INCLUDE spaces.
Engravings are centered and set in all caps black HELVETICA.
