WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY...
Young Harrow Foundation has been an incredible support to CAAS over the last couple of years and has supported us in running our first Crowdfunding Initiative securing £5,702 towards our Youth Project, by providing funding enabling us to pilot our Girls Group project, and probably most importantly, helped us forge stronger links with other voluntary sector organisations within Harrow.
Thanks to the Young Harrow Foundation’s promotion of collaborative work we are delighted to be partnered with Mind in Harrow, Mosaic, and Paiwand in delivering our new HeadsUp project providing mental health support to young people with ADHD and Autism."
