How Can I Support Power House?
We want you to know it takes a team when it comes to providing a safe place for the youth of our community to gather and engage in healthy activities with one another. The Power House Youth Center is largely operated by volunteers and supported entirely by donations to operate. We need many volunteers and sufficient funding to continue providing for area youth in grades 6 - 12. Below are the benefits and the blessings needed to fulfill them.
