Immerse Arkansas

This Giving Tuesday, you can make a difference in the lives of youth overcoming crisis. In Arkansas, approximately 300 young adults are experiencing some level of homelessness every day. So far in 2024, Immerse has served 253 youth in the OC. Your support helps us keep youth off the streets and set on a path towards overcoming. Donate today at https://bit.ly/3OiguCb 💛

Giving Tuesday is the official kickoff for the giving season, a joyful time of celebrating the present, reflecting on the past year and anticipating the future. At Immerse, we see breakthrough, healing and transformation every day, and we hear youth from crisis declare, “I’m an overcomer!” Thanks to a generous $500,000 matching opportunity, your donation will have twice the impact on our youth's stories of overcoming. Visit our website to learn more about this opportunity! https://bit.ly/3OiguCb
