New Pathways for Youth Celebrates 30th Anniversary
New Pathways for Youth celebrated its 30th anniversary at its annual breakfast, titled 30 Years of Being Unstoppable. The event was led by the youth of the organization, who shared their stories of transformation. More than 425 mentors, donors, partners, families and community members gathered at the newly opened Madison Center for the Arts for the Ted Talk-inspired program. Five youth leaders took to center stage with their mentors sharing their personal journeys.
The breakfast raised more than $320,000 to ensure that youth living in extreme poverty, facing the adversity of their peers and often forgotten by other agencies will receive the support of a caring, stable adult.
