Partnership 4 Hope empowers young adults aging out of systems of care to build stable, fulfilling lives through mentorship, essential resources, education, and a caring community that ensures they never transition alone. Youth Mart carries household essentials including furniture, kitchen items, housewares, bedding, clothing, food, hygiene items, cleaning product
s, and children’s items/clothing up to size 5T. Young people shop with their case worker from one of our collaborative agencies for items to set up their home. The agencies in our collaboration are Project Everlast, Child Saving Institute, Family Housing Advisory Services, Youth Emergency Services, Central Plains Center for Services, Childrens Square/The Therapy Place (IA), Heartland Family Service, Omaha Home for Boys, State of Nebraska, and Angels Share. Volunteers contribute greatly to the success of Youth Mart. Every week, volunteers sort through donations, acquire donations from community groups, and deliver furniture to the shoppers. We have a dedicated group of regular volunteers and volunteers who drop in periodically. Agencies, companies, and churches are a big part of our group, as well. Please contact us if you are interested in volunteering at Youth Mart or with our Truck Brigade, who delivers furniture each week. Youth Mart was started in 2012 through a collaboration of many local non-profits and is now a program of Partnership 4 Hope. All of the household essentials we offer are acquired by donations from our generous community members. To honor and show respect to the young people we serve, we only offer clean items that are ready-to-use. Regular high-need items:
• toilet paper
