Childhood memories often evoke a sense of pure joy and unburdened freedom.

The beauty of childhood lies in finding happiness in the smallest things. From building sandcastles to chasing butterflies, each moment was an adventure. These simple joys often become cherished memories that we carry with us throughout our lives. They remind us to appreciate the little things and to find joy in the present moment.

Since 1969, Crossroads Youth & Family Services provides a home for youth experiencing housing insecurity. During this time, many would be picked up and sent to jail. That was until Judge Rambo and others came together to come up with a different solution. A home for displaced youth was created and continues to house thousands of kids in need of a little burden free living.

This campaign is about providing loving, healthy experiences for children, youth and their families. If the world were like this sandbox, it would be a place of growth, learning, and collaboration. That is the focus of Crossroads Youth & Family Services. We want to provide the resources, tools and spaces for families to connect and develop their families in a way that is healthy for all children and youths.
