Due to factors beyond their control, aged-out foster youth are highly likely to remain stuck in a generational, cyclical state of dependency which costs the community $56,000 annually per person in public assistance and economic costs. Through Connections Homes, a one-time investment of $15,000 can provide a lifelong connection that is proven to break this vicious cycle of poverty and homelessness so that these young adults can thrive in life and impact their world. Yesterday’s awards celebration showcased the many ways that trained Mentoring Families make a difference for aged-out foster youth in our Don’t Go Alone program. Today, we have 59 youth waiting to be matched. We are ready to serve them, but we cannot do it without you! Will you invest in these young adults today? Your gift by midnight will be matched for double the impact. Please prayerfully consider joining our mission!
