Connect. Share. Give.

Thank you for visiting our site. We invite you to Connect, Share, and Give. Please browse and learn more about the programs and services that we offer to families in our community. We invite you to show your support of YPN by connecting with us in a variety of ways.

1. Read and Share our FY23 Impact Report
Hot off the presses! Our FY23 Annual Report shares our work and many reasons WHY YPN from staff to participants to volunteers. We are so proud of the impact that we make to those who want to be the best parents that they can be, and of the wonderful partnerships and support that allows us to live our mission. We invite you to join us as we continue to Support, Educate, and Empower families. Together, we can impact generations.

2. Give TODAY, IMPACT Future Generations
There are many ways that you can make a contribution that supports our year-round prenatal and parenting education programming. Your donation can help us provide weekly groups to more than 100 families and home visitations, you can help GIVE JOY to our participant families during the holiday season by gifting new toys, or donate to stock the Eastern Iowa Diaper Bank, where parents can earn free diapers by participating in healthy programs. Perhaps you want to pledge an annual gift $500+ to our Brian Stutzman Giving Society or SEEDS of Growth Corporate Giving Society or are starting to think about your life and Legacy planning.

Visit our Give page and learn more about each of these opportunities to support our mission. We are grateful for your consideration.

3. Listen to and Share our Podcast
Join YPN as we venture into the world of streaming! We are sitting down with special guests from our YPN Family about their WHY YPN? From staff, volunteers, participants, community members and more – we dive into the stories, connections and reasons behind decades of partnership, passion, and persistence of those who support our mission.
