Mission Statement

Impacting generational change by empowering youth who are facing the greatest obstacles through relationships with professional mentors – 12+ years, no matter what.

About This Cause

Every child has big dreams and unique talents. But some children face far too many obstacles. They are disproportionately impacted by foster care, poverty, the criminal justice system, under-resourced schools, hunger and homelessness. Friends of the Children intentionally selects children impacted the most by social, economic and systemic barriers. Research has shown that our long-term, relationship-based model has been incredibly successful with children facing the greatest obstacles, and our outcomes show it. Over the course of 12+ years, Friends work one on one with each child to build a roadmap for their future. We work with each child to build nine Core Assets that we believe will empower them to overcome adversity and enter adulthood with more opportunities and choices than previous generations.
