Open Doors Endowment Campaign

Building a Brighter Future for Youth and Families in Pennsylvania

Valley Youth House is proud to launch the public phase of our Open Doors Endowment Campaign—a bold $25 million initiative to secure the future of our work with vulnerable youth and families across Pennsylvania.


Why This Campaign Matters

This is the most ambitious fundraising effort in our 50+ year history. The endowment will provide:

Critical Resources

Emergency needs of youth and
families such as food, clothing, transportation, case management, mental health
counseling, and emergency shelter and housing.

Innovation & Impact

Continuously evolving cutting-
edge, research-based programs to meet the changing needs of youth that deliver life-
changing results.

Capital Improvements

Ongoing repairs and maintenance of properties to ensure warm, welcoming and safe spaces.

Adaptability

Establish a safety net and adaptive capacity to reduce reliance on government funding and effectively respond to financial
challenges.

“Patti and I have been honored to have been associated with Valley Youth House in one way or another for over three decades. That has given us a firsthand view of the excellent work that VYH has done in making life better for youth at risk across many parts of Pennsylvania. Continuation of that work is critical for the development of children throughout our communities.”

— Jim and Patti Deutsch, Open Doors Donors
