LUZERNE COUNTY, Pa. — The NEPA Youth Shelter is located in downtown Scranton, but Friday night's gala was held at the Banks in Pittston.
Newswatch 16's Ally Gallo served as the emcee for the evening.
The theme for the casino night fundraiser was Gamble for Good.
"Not only do they put a lot of effort towards this, you know it helps so much, especially a lot of kids I know growing up and everything coming around they'd change. It changes your life around. It really does," said Jihaad Webb, volunteer.
The NEPA Youth Shelter provides emergency shelter and services for homeless teens in northeastern PA.
