Every family deserves the opportunity to make meaningful memories with the people they love. Your generosity can help them do just that. 🎁

Through SAY San Diego’s Holiday Hopes fundraiser, our goal is to raise $30,000 to provide 300 families with $100 gift cards to use on whatever they need most, from gifts for their loved ones to everyday household essentials. Every donation brings us one step closer to making that happen!

Help us give the gift of hope and make the season brighter for San Diego families. ✨

Something exciting is happening at SAY San Diego’s Military Family Resource Center!

This week, we’re partnering with Habitat for Humanity and an incredible group of community volunteers to give our Military Family Resource Center a much-needed refresh. 🛠️

For more than 30 years, this space has been a place where military-connected families can find support, build connections, access resources, and feel a sense of belonging.

Now, it’s getting a little love of its own.

From refreshed spaces to new opportunities for children and families to connect, this transformation will help us continue creating a welcoming environment for the families we serve.

Stay tuned as we share progress throughout the week. We can’t wait to show you what’s taking shape! 💙

Being a hero starts with making healthy choices. 🦸

This Red Ribbon Week, we’re joining schools and communities across San Diego in encouraging young people to “Be A Hero” by staying drug-free.

At SAY San Diego, we believe prevention starts with connection. When young people have supportive adults, safe spaces, positive relationships, and opportunities to build confidence and resilience, they have a stronger foundation for making healthy choices.

This Red Ribbon Week, let’s start the conversation. Talk with the young people in your life about their goals, their choices, and the people and activities that help them thrive.

Together, we can help create communities where every young person has the support they need to make healthy choices and reach their full potential. ❤️

October is National Bullying Prevention Month.

Preventing bullying starts with creating communities where every young person feels seen, supported, and connected.

Through SAY San Diego’s school-based programs, students build confidence, communication skills, and connections they need to navigate challenges, stand up for one another, and help create a culture of kindness and belonging.

Because when kids know they belong, they’re better equipped to help make sure others feel like they belong, too. 💙

Hardship can hit at any time – when it does, the last thing you need to worry about is your energy bill.

Today is National Youth Confidence Day! 💙

Confidence grows when young people are given the opportunity to use their voices, take on leadership roles, and see that their ideas can make a difference.

At SAY San Diego, our Youth Development & Leadership programs create opportunities for young people to lead, connect, advocate, and make a positive impact in their schools and communities. Through youth-led programs like City Heights Youth in Action (CHYA) and Youth Unite, Mission Bay Youth Group at Mission Bay High School, Club ELEVATED at Canyon Hills High School - Home of the Rattlers, and Club ELEVATED at Clairemont High School, young people are empowered to build leadership skills while putting their voices and lived experiences into action.

This National Youth Confidence Day, we’re celebrating the young people who are finding their voices, stepping into leadership, and discovering their ability to create change. ✨

Want to help build confidence in the next generation of leaders? Encourage a young person to share their ideas, get involved, and use their voice.
