Safe Refuge Youth Homes

Giving teens a place of refuge during unrest at home.

“Melody is an amazing person who has shown me nothing but kindness when I’ve been at her home. Her organization is truly incredible and I believe it deserves all the recognition in the world for its impact and importance in the lives of youth.” -B

“During the last two years of high school, I felt lost, unaccepted by my mother, had many mental health issues I didn’t understand, and was very emotionally unstable. Thanks to the Habibulayev family, I finally had a home where I felt welcomed and loved. I am forever grateful to them for opening their home to me and helping me understand my potential.” -A

“An emergency home might be the most valuable commodity that you can have in a country where the climate is so extreme, and the resources that accompany the warmth of a shelter can make somebody’s day. Melody has helped me so much with life and making better choices through this home and beyond.” -A
