Donor Reflections: Ann Marie Gullickson

My donations make a real difference for young people in my community; there is no other program like Project Legacy in Rochester that invests in youth in this way, that never gives up on the youth they serve. I am consistently impressed by Project Legacy’s growth and their commitment to continuous improvement - their program team’s ability to recognize unmet needs and to fill them. I’m also impressed by the emphasis on being a relationship-based program, not only for the youth served, but also for the supporters and donors. 

I would like other community members to know that when you give to Project Legacy, your financial support stays in the community and directly supports youth in our community. Helping young people launch into adulthood is so important and can be a challenging life stage, even with family support. The Project Legacy family offers support and fills basic needs for safety and security, including food, shelter and emotional support, so youth can turn their energy and attention to achieving their goals in school and work. 

By offering to support youth today, you are helping save a generation, helping youth change their narrative, and overcome generational poverty and generational trauma, with access to more choices and opportunities for themselves and their children. With rising costs in fuel and groceries, needs are greater than ever. 

Please consider supporting young people by joining the Project Legacy donor community
