Financial Empowerment
Building a strong financial foundation can be hard – especially when you’ve experienced foster care.
But successfully handling money and building savings and credit can provide a path to freedom and empowerment.
Foster Success is here to support you! We offer financial education and ways for you to earn, access, and save money through programs designed to help you reach your financial goals.
Take a look at some of our current financial empowerment programs:
“Meeting with the financial empowerment coordinator and my ETV coordinator has opened many doors for me. I was able to connect with other youth and take advantage of all the programs available to me… This match allowed me to purchase a vehicle, which in turn gave me more flexibility in regards to going to class and working. The class also gave me more financial knowledge and confidence.”
– Paul O.
