Happy Holidays from YES!

This time of year, I used to struggle with unique gifts for clients and friends. They get plenty of fruit baskets, gift cards and bottles of wine. But I like doing something different – something that is both meaningful and memorable.

I now make a donation to my charity of choice in their names. I get such a heartfelt response! And I encourage you to do the same.

Of course, I hope your donation will support Youth Employment Service (YES). YES helps young people pave roads to economic independence with work-based programs that help them improve their self-esteem, employability, career choices, financial/personal self-sufficiency, and quality of life.

There are three easy ways to support YES this season:

  1. Make a donation in your client’s or friend’s name. Simply click on this button below, make a donation and you can send them an email stating you made a donation in their name.
  2. Make a year-end donation of your own, which is tax deductible
  3. Use Amazon Smile for your online shopping and select YES as your beneficiary. See details below.

Your donations directly help youth in Orange County build needed career skills for a lifetime of success.

Please join me by supporting YES this holiday season.

 

Happy Holidays,

 

John Hobson
