Thanks to friends and supporters Wayside has raised over $500,000 to help fulfill there mission: “Empowering children, young adults, and families to achieve greater independence and emotional well being,” through mental health counseling and family support services. Your participation allows Wayside to support children, youth, and families across Wayside’s service areas that extend throughout the Commonwealth. Funds are used for holiday gifts for kids and families, emergency clothing and food for struggling families, and special activities for teens.
