               Let’s fill the gaps for youth in our community.



               PROGRAMS

               The Project Lemonade Store

               Provides free shopping experiences so foster youth look
               and feel their best. Youth ages 5-24 select from new
               clothing choosing outfits that make them feel confident in
               school and life.


               L+EARN Internship

               Helping foster youth overcome barriers to employment.
               Interns gain hands-on work experience, attend professional
               workshops, interview for post-internship work, and receive
               access to a long-term career support network.

               WISH: What Inspires Students’ Hearts


               WISH closes the experience gap foster youth face by
               providing funding to help youth dream big. WISHes have
               helped youth celebrate major milestones, play sports, at-
               tend camps and gain skills to reach their goals.

               The Inspire Network

               Teens in foster care need more support. The Inspire

               Network provides foster teens and young adults with
               one-on-one mentorship, learning opportunities and
               community building.

               Fill the Gap Scholarship

               The Fill the Gap Scholarship helps foster youth stay in school and graduate by reducing
               financial barriers to success.
