HYPA #TwoFeet

#TwoFeet is the theme and name of the primary fundraising campaign for HYPA (Helping Young People Achieve). HYPA is the youth services division of SYC, which has been helping young people achieve since 1958. The #TwoFeet campaign promotes our core philosophy which centers around helping young people create and maintain an independent, constructive and prosperous life. 

 

This involves transitioning young people out of challenging life situations such as homelessness, a difficult home environment, unemployment or disconnection from school or learning, to a self sufficient, independent and prosperous life. This requires engaging in learning and ultimately, working, and unemployment is a precursor to poverty and welfare dependence.
