Support Vashti’s Summer 2024

Summer is here. We hope you have fun plans for your time off next couple of months.

At Vashti, summer activities for our youth are in motion. We started off with the Gentian Creek Preserve and our Residential Program team members are lining up more to keep our 10-18 year olds days full of positive and exciting things to do.

Just as the Bible says in Proverbs 16:27, “Idle hands are the devil’s workshop; idle lips are his mouthpiece,” we strive to ensure we have consistent events for our youth to look forward to attending. It encourages teamwork and extra effort to keep their peers focusing on the good God has to offer, especially during these moments of distress they’re experiencing.

“People plan their path, but the LORD secures their steps.” Proverbs 16:9

We want to ensure we can provide constructive experiences for the time our youth calls Vashti home and we are forever grateful for the 120+ years of support you continue to provide for our children and their families in need.

Please consider giving a one-time or monthly donation to continue our mission in providing faith-based services, mental and behavior health therapy, and essential life-skills and coping mechanisms to support bright futures where our children can thrive and prosper with abundance from the gifts God has given them to serve others as they are being served today.
