BUILDING A STRONG FOUNDATION

When a special-needs child reaches age 22, they are no longer able to attend public school. When this occurs, their families must make some difficult choices. Finding an organization that is devoted to providing daily activities for their special-needs family member so they can remain social, active, and happy becomes a priority. Families need a resource like FriendsUNeed, an organization that provides life enrichment without placing a financial burden on their households.

Reeves Young is proud to sponsor the FUN Club, a group for special-needs adults who have aged out of the school system. This program provides daily structured enrichment activities and allows its club members the opportunity to spend time actively participating in the community through partnerships with local businesses. Over the last 5 years, Reeves Young has donated more than $350,000 to the FUN Club and is lucky to have the opportunity to host them each year at our annual golf tournament, Halloween party, and FUNtasia Celebration, as well as monthly visits to our office for lunch.  

ENRICHING THE YOUTH

Reeves Young has assisted the North Gwinnett High School DECA club, football team, BETA club, and Key Club in several ways to enrich the lives of the students in our local community. Whether the students volunteered at one of our many events throughout the year or received feedback on projects for their annual competitions, we make sure to provide the youth in our community with the knowledge and importance of giving back. 

BRIDGING THE GAP

The North Gwinnett Cooperative was formed in 1991 as a ministry that provides food, clothing, financial assistance, and spiritual support to those in need in the Buford, Suwanee, and Sugar Hill communities. Originally formed by Sugar Hill United Methodist Church in 1991, the ministry is now supported by additional congregations, area businesses, civic organizations, schools, and individuals who generously donate food, clothing, financial resources, and committed volunteer efforts. 

We participate in the North Gwinnett yearly toy drive and participate in their Santa Shop. We have collected toys and other gifts for children up to 18 years old and have helped parents “shop” for their children in the Santa Shop. Several Reeves Young employees volunteer each year to help out with these events. 

ENGAGING THE COMMUNITY

At Reeves Young, strengthening the communities where we live and work is central to who we are—on the jobsite and beyond. Our Nashville team brought that commitment to life by hosting the inaugural 2025 Cars for a Cause event in support of Saddle Up! Nashville, a local nonprofit dedicated to empowering children and youth with disabilities through horse-assisted therapeutic, educational, and recreational programs.

The event welcomed car enthusiasts, local businesses, and neighbors from across the Nashville community for a day of vintage classics and modern showstoppers. The lineup was as diverse and vibrant as the people who came together to rally behind a meaningful mission.

Thanks to the generosity of everyone who participated, Reeves Young and Cars for a Cause raised $7,000 for Saddle Up! Nashville. These funds will directly support Saddle Up!’s work helping children and youth with disabilities build confidence, develop new skills, and experience the therapeutic power of horses.
