Youth Homes Auxiliary is a non-profit group of nearly 200 dedicated volunteers who, through various activities such as their Thrift Store in Pleasant Hill, CA and other special events, help to fund the care and raising of neglected and troubled youth at Youth Homes, Inc. facilities. As a Board Member of Youth Homes, Inc., I was asked to participate in a Fashion Show and Auction at the Crow Canyon Country Club in Danville, CA. The Fashion Show was incredible and raised well over $9,000 to benefit Youth Homes.
