The agency is currently behind in its essential services budget and needs monetary donations to continue to expand its reach. Individuals may also support the nonprofit by shopping its retail store Uptown in the former Leggett building. Proceeds from the store help cover overhead costs for the nonprofit services provided to the community, free of charge.
