Safe Families Core Values define who we are as an organization and how we treat each other, the families we support, volunteers, and partners. When we put them into action they create our culture.

Radical Hospitality means welcome strangers into our homes and our lives to find hope, rest, and healing. We work to create space, maintain a welcoming stance and invite others to use their skills to serve others and grow the movement.

THIS is what community looks like.

We have the honor of helping bring together food and essential resources for families impacted by the Wrights Spring Fire.

These resources are made possible because of our community — through donations from local businesses, individuals, and organizations, along with support from the Klamath Lake Food Bank. 🤝

United Way gets to help put it all together, connect the pieces, and make sure it reaches the families who need it most.

This is what happens when we come together.
Neighbors helping neighbors. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who has donated, volunteered, partnered, and helped make this possible.

Go United Way! 💙💛

👻🍬 HELP US STOCK UP FOR TRUNK OR TREAT! 🍬🎃

The YMCA of Klamath Falls is getting ready for Trunk or Treat, and we need LOTS of candy to make the night extra sweet!

🍭 1 bag = 1 entry
🍫 2 bags = 2 entries
🍬 5 bags = 5 entries... you get the idea!

The more candy you donate, the more chances you have to win—and every bag helps us create a fun-filled Halloween celebration for our community. 🧡

♻️💙 YOUR CANS & BOTTLES CAN HELP BUILD HOPE! 🏠

Did you know IYS has an ongoing bottle and can drive?

As we wrap up August and head into September, we're making a special Bottle & Can Drive PUSH as part of our Build Hope Together campaign to help support the remaining repairs at our new Transitional Living Program home!

We've made tremendous progress on this expansion, but some of the biggest and most costly repairs are still ahead. Every dollar we can raise helps us put more resources toward getting this home where it needs to be for the young adults who live there.

And here's an easy way YOU can help:

♻️ Save your Oregon redeemable cans & bottles for IYS!

Have a bag or two? A garage full? Maybe your business, workplace, family or neighborhood wants to collect them for us?

We'll take them!

🚗 Need them picked up? Give us a call or email and we'll arrange a pickup.

📍 Want to drop them off? Bring them by the IYS Administrative Office.
115 N. 10th Street, Downtown Klamath Falls
📞 541-882-2053
📧 [email protected]

Every can counts. Every bottle counts. And when an entire community gets involved, those little 10¢ deposits can add up to something pretty incredible. 💙

Clean out the garage. Clear out the cans. Help us Build Hope Together! 🏠♻️
