IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO HELP FOSTER YOUTH SUCCEED.  

Help us give every young person the support and opportunity to be happy and successful. Whether you can give a little or a lot of your time, money or resources, there are countless ways to get involved!

CONTRIBUTE TO OUR CAREER VIDEO LIBRARY

Share your professional journey and experience with our scholars to broaden their exposure to different career paths. Many foster youth don't have personal connections to jobs they hope to pursue or a strong sense for what options are available to them. You can help them understand the nuances of the work you do, the path you took to get where you are today, and any advice you can offer for young people seeking to pursue a similar career path.

We’ll provide some questions and prompts, as well as instructions on how to record and send us the video.

OPTIONAL: You can sign up to be available to scholars for an informational interview to answer questions and give advice.
