Organization Presents Service Project for Young Football Fans
 
Youth In Need (YIN), a local non-profit organization, is offering the area's young people the opportunity to hit the turf with the St. Louis Rams while also giving back to the community. Youth In Need, the St. Louis Rams Community First Youth Ticket Program, and EDS, the leading global data services company invite groups to participate in this volunteer service-learning project. Seven-member teams consisting of six youths and one adult coordinator will collect books, school supplies, and canned goods in competition for a prize package that includes a pre-game field pass to a St. Louis Rams home game in the fall. The deadline for registration is 6:30 pm on Monday, July 28th. For more information on this project, please contact Kate Tallent at (636) 946-0101.

Since the organization's founding in 1974, the vision of Youth In Need remains constant: to be the leader and driving force in making children's healthy development and well-being the community's highest priority, particularly for those who face adversity.  YIN serves over 5,000 children and families each year with more than 50 residential-treatment, community, early-childhood, educational, counseling, and employment programs.
