Our Friends Place is one of the best nonprofit's I've ever encountered. The staff goes above and beyond for every single client they come into contact with. The Board and Volunteers are some of the most compassionate and generous people I've ever met, and they truly care about the mission of Our Friends Place. For over 30 years, Our Friends Place has been transforming lives by breaking cycles of poverty, homelessness, and abuse and I know they will continue doing so for many more years.

Our Friends Place focuses on helping young women at risk gain employment and life skills, education, and confidence they need for a more resilient and independent future. The case management is intense and aims to support the whole person as they learn to navigate and use available community resources. Making a difference in the lives of young adults and changing the trajectory of their life story is why Our Friends Place is a valuable program.

My experience with OFP was life changing. I got to know the girls and their stories through the office. It compelled me to work harder for them just knowing their backgrounds, their circumstances, and their challenges. I was able to personally share their joys and troubles from time to time. It became apparent early on when I would meet young women who would surface back at the office how much difference OFP made in their lives. I am really proud to have become a part of OFP and its mission. I continue to follow and donate as much as I can today. OFP and it mission will never leave me.
