Trinity Episcopal Church makes donation to YouthHope


From California-

YouthHope, which provides assistance to homeless or at-risk young people in Redlands, has received a nearly $6,000 donation from Trinity Episcopal Church.

Father David Caffrey presented Heidi Mayer, the group’s founder, with a check for $5,957 at a recent YouthHope board meeting. The money came from Trinity’s Randall Fund, an endowment designated for outreach programs.

“YouthHope was chosen to be the recipient of this gift because we wanted to give money to a place where that amount would really make a difference,” Caffrey said.

Trinity became aware of YouthHope in December 2010, when the church’s youth group asked that a free will offering from their annual Bread of the World Soup Supper go to the organization. The church then invited Mayer to speak about the program’s mission to the congregation and the youth group.
