Monthly Giving

creating a pathway to economic stability

Your monthly support empowers youth through job training, mentorship, and opportunity.

From Intern to Barista

“My favorite part about this job is having that space and time to develop. It’s a testament to how far I’ve come to be able to train the next youth.” –Angelica

Nearly 1 in 5

foster youth experience homelessness within a year of aging out.

More than 2/3

miss internship opportunities due to financial barriers.

Why Give?

More than 50%

of foster youth are unemployed by age 25.

20-30% lower

lifetime earnings are common among former foster youth.

Only 3-4%

earn a college degree by the age of 26.

Nation’s Largest

foster youth population in the United States is in Los Angeles.

How can we change this?

Many youth lack access to early work experience, professional networks, reliable transportation, and the soft skills needed to succeed in today’s workforce.

Paid internships bridge the gap and create pathways to long-term success.
