Together We Give.
GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world.
GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Over the years, this idea has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. Especially this year, at a time when we are physically distanced due to the pandemic, generosity can bring us—people of all races, faiths, and political views—together.
This GivingTuesday, your collective generosity can help end youth homelessness. Together we can create a ripple of hope and positive change in the lives of youth experiencing homelessness. Together we can change the world for homeless youth.

Barriers and Dangers Facing the Youth We Serve:
trauma // addiction
46% of youth experiencing homelessness were physically abused at their home. [2] About 80% of homeless youth age 12-21 used drugs or alcohol as a means to self-medicate to deal with traumatic experiences and abuse. [3]
human trafficking
More than one third of homeless youth engage in survival sex to get resources like food, shelter, or protection. [2]
the housing crisis
In Washington State, a minimum wage earner ($12/hr) would have to work 75 hours per week to afford a 1-bedroom apartment at Fair Market Rent. [1]
Homelessness. Abuse. Violence. Poverty.
These are real problems affecting real kids in our community.
Our goal is to be “out there.” Wherever they are. In the midst of whatever they’re going through. To compassionately guide youth out of homelessness and into lives of dignity, integrity, and responsibility. To see not just the lives of youth changed, but for the world around them to change and become a place that cares for hurting youth. Our mission is to…
change the world for homeless youth
For twenty years The Coffee Oasis (a 501(c)3 non-profit organization) has offered hope and opportunity to homeless youth, ages 13-25, in Washington. Thousands of youth have found community and healing through the Oasis Youth Programs.
