Thank you for supporting our Holiday Drive!

This holiday season, you can make a difference in the lives of young people experiencing homelessness. Below is a list of items needed to help bring comfort, joy, and a little holiday magic to the youth served by New Beginnings.

Your generosity can help make their season a little brighter!

Gift bags will be given to 100+ youth in our Shelter, Transitional Living, and Outreach Programs.

Everyone deserves to feel comfortable and cared for.  For youth experiencing homelessness in Maine, your donation provides more than basic needs. It offers dignity, reassurance, and a reminder that their community cares.
