Our founder Kate’s lifelong journey is one of defying expectations, never giving up, and never accepting impossible. Having grown up in a family of addiction, she knows first-hand the adversity and chaos it creates in a person’s life, how it can break up families, and deeply affect young adults trying to find their way in the world. In college, Kate met her mentor Barbara who taught her the value of unconditional support and believing in yourself. Today, Kate understands the power of having a helping hand and is committed to supporting foster youth aging out of the system with training, mentorship and support to help make their dreams possible.
