Youth Emergency Services

Almost a week after the big reveal and we're still reeling! 🎉

To every grower, donor, volunteer, and organizer, we say 🙏THANK YOU.🙏

Through Mustaches for Kids Omaha you raised critical funds for Youth Emergency Services and The Bay of Omaha along with our charity partners BookLoop and United Cerebral Palsy of Nebraska… and created more opportunities for young people throughout our community. 🤝🫂

Thank you for giving, for growing with us, and, most importantly, for believing in our youth. Because every young person deserves a safe place to land, a place to belong, and a chance to build the future they want. ❤

📣📣 Healing doesn't always look like a counseling session. Sometimes it looks like painting with friends, sharing good food, or discovering a new resource. 🎨🍎💻

Thank you to our Clinical Mental Health Practitioner Shy for creating a space where young people could connect, learn, and prioritize their mental health. 🫂💚

More than $1.1 million raised. Countless lives impacted.🙌🎉

What started as a month of mustaches became something much bigger. Our community came together for Mustaches for Kids Omaha to help grow support for young people experiencing homelessness and crisis. 🙏❤️ To everyone who came out to grow, donate, and otherwise support YES—thank you.

You helped grow awareness of the challenges youth face. And you helped grow the momentum behind YES' Welcome Home Campaign. Because of you, more young people will have access to the safety, stability, and support they deserve. Now that's something worth growing. 👏👏👏

Mental health matters—especially for young people experiencing homelessness.

💚 💚may be winding down, but we're keeping the self-care momentum going by sharing simple ways to care for your mind.

Because at YES, healing starts with care, connection, and support. 🫂🤝🧠

In the midst of all the mustaches this month, we wanted to drop a quick reminder on what all this hair is about. 👇👇

For YES youth Sam, having a place to call home meant finally feeling hopeful again—and having people in his corner. 🏠❤

That’s the true meaning behind every dollar raised through Mustaches for Kids Omaha. And there’s still time to be part of it: https://www.yesomaha.org/mustaches-for-kids-omaha

Big things grow when young people have the support they deserve. 🌱🫂🌳

YES is so honored to be a 2026 grant recipient of the Big Grove for Good Foundation! This investment helps us continue showing up for youth with safe spaces, stability, and the kind of support that opens doors to what’s next. Grateful to be growing alongside a community that believes in young people. 💚🙏

May is 💚Mental Health Awareness Month.💚 At YES, we know mental health is essential to overall well-being.

For the youth we serve, mental health is often shaped by trauma and instability. That’s why our mental health services remain a core part of our Core Pillars of Care—because healing takes more than just housing. 🫂🧠❤️‍🩹
