“Hello, my name is Haley Heiner. I am the Co-President of the Northfield Union of Youth, also known as 'The Key.' I have been attending there for a while now and I’ve honestly never felt more at home there. So many wonderful people have accepted me there and I’ve gained amazing new friendships. The Key has helped me through so much regarding mental health, social skills, financial problems, and more. Without The Key, I don’t know where I would be today, and so many youth could say the same. The Key is the longest-running youth-led and youth-empowering organization recorded in the United States and I want it to stay that way. So many kids, including me, need a safe space like The Key. I'm so grateful that I have a place like this, and I am beyond grateful that our community cares for this organization.”

TODAY IS GIVE DAY! The NUY serves youth from across the greater Northfield area to connect them to community resources, and more importantly, to help them discover their voice and their power. Over the last two weeks here on FB, we have tried to highlight the needs youth identified and the ways that they are working to make their youth-led youth center address those critical needs. 100% of all donations made to the Northfield Union of Youth stay in the community to continue to move our mission, our town, and our youth forward. Thank you for contributing!
