FosterBuddy

FosterBuddy provides a virtual platform connecting career professionals with foster youth aging out of the system, enabling mentors the opportunity to play a transformative role in foster youth’s future. With over 50% of foster youth experiencing housing insecurity, poverty, or interruptions in their education within years of emancipation, FosterBuddy aims to elevate the odds of foster youth’s success—success that starts by signing up as a FosterBuddy mentor. From there, FosterBuddy helps offer a safe space for young people to learn directly from a mentor who’s worked in a field they’re interested in. Whatever your professional skills or expertise might be—whether in the realm of medicine, business, entertainment, or tech—there is no limit to the impact FosterBuddy mentors can have on guiding young people who have few others to turn to in their lives. For foster youth interested in gaining a meaningful, life-changing mentorship that can help steer you in a stable direction, FosterBuddy is the app for you. FosterBuddy. Fostering dreams, one mentor at a time.
