YES Shelter Repair Project
The YES Emergency Shelter at 196 Brock St has been helping young people and families in a housing crisis for over 20 years. The shelter building is now in dire need of repairs.
Please consider helping us repair our Emergency Shelter for Youth and Families!
Here is an up-to-date list of the work that needs to be done, the most recent cost estimates and status of work. This list will be kept up-to-date for your information while we work to better help young people and families experiencing homelessness in Peterborough.
As of January 2024, We have raised just over $175,000 towards our goal! This is incredible, but we still have to raise $25,000 to meet our goal of $200,000 and take care of the most crucial work required at 196!
