Youth Empowerment Services, Inc. Receives $20K Gift from Landmark Construction To Support Mission

     North Charleston, SC - Youth Empowerment Services, Inc., a non-profit organization committed to empowering young girls' lives through Christian values, is excited to announce a significant $20,000 donation from Landmark Construction. This generous contribution will not only aid Y.E.S. in carrying out its mission but will also support the annual Dream Girls Conference and the upcoming Worth Beyond Measure Summer Mentoring Program.

By creating a supportive environment, Y.E.S. helps middle and high-school-aged girls grow into strong, confident women who understand their value. This donation marks an exciting partnership that emphasizes community development and personal empowerment for our future leaders.

     “The donation from Landmark Construction will make a big difference in our ability to reach and impact more young ladies. Their generosity helps us provide more opportunities for young women to gain meaningful mentorship, education, and encouragement at the Dream Girls Conference and through our mentoring programs," said Roslin Fields, Founder of Youth Empowerment Services, Inc. "This isn't just a donation; it's an investment in the future of young women, empowering them to reach their goals and make positive community contributions."

     The Dream Girls Conference, scheduled for March 15, 2025, will feature inspiring speakers, educational workshops, music and entertainment, and activities that promote community building. With the support from Landmark Construction, Y.E.S. can expand these offerings and make a greater impact.

    “We’re committed to supporting our community and investing in programs that have a meaningful and lasting impact. Youth Empowerment Services, Inc. shares our values of leadership, honesty, and community service. Their founder, Roslin Fields, has an infectious passion for helping young women that permeates throughout her organization and inspires anyone they come in contact with. We believe in Roslin and her team, and we are excited to watch our community flourish from the positive effects of this non-profit," said Anthony Garcia, COO of Landmark Construction.
