Help a Youth in Crisis


LifeWorks Youth & Family Alliance, and the 10,000 youth and families we serve each year, depend on generous participation and support from community members in order to carry out our mission.


Your donation of time, in-kind resources, or financial gifts has a significant impact on the lives of those needing a safe place to sleep, a nutritious meal, life skills, parenting skills, GED classes, crisis counseling and many other critical services offered by LifeWorks Youth & Family Alliance.


Every dollar you invest in LifeWorks Youth & Family Alliance stays in the Austin community and $.80 of each dollar goes directly to programs to help us change lives.


$25 provides a backpack for a homeless youth living on the streets

$50 supplies diapers and formula for a young mom’s baby

$100 allows a youth to take the GED test and move toward higher education

$250 underwrites classroom materials for adults struggling with literacy issues

$1000 affords the comprehensive mental health, education and support services needed to transition an abused youth from crisis to safety and success.
