Anonymous 900K Donation To Fund Arkansas’ First Youth Shelter

An anonymous gift of $900,000 has been gifted to Immerse Arkansas to fully fund the completion of The Station, Arkansas’ first shelter for youth between the ages of 18 and 24. The Station will offer protection to its residents from crisis and guide them down a path of healing.

“We are thrilled to announce that the construction of The Station is now fully funded due to the remarkable generosity of our community. We’re incredibly grateful to all who have given, collaborated and prayed to bring this project to life. The Station will provide a launchpad into a successful future for youth who desperately need it,” said Eric Gilmore, executive director of Immerse Arkansas.
