Dear friends of First Star,

Now that Foster Care Awareness Month has come to a close, we want to express our heartfelt thanks to all who rallied behind our Foster Care Awareness campaign.
Your generosity not only unlocked the $10,000 Board match but also raised a remarkable $20,015! These funds will empower First Star Scholars with education, mentorship, and invaluable opportunities to thrive.

To our alumni, your achievements remind us why this work matters. To our leadership and supporters, your continued commitment fuels our growth. And to our dedicated Board of Directors, especially Peter Samuelson, thank you for leading the way through the Matching Gift Challenge and doubling the power of every donation received during our final week.

Together, you are helping youth and young adults in foster care rewrite their futures.

We are proud to share our 2024 First Star Impact Report, highlighting the milestones we’ve achieved together and the lives you’ve helped transform. The work doesn’t stop here. Your support will continue to fuel our programs and impact through the rest of 2025 as we expand our reach and deepen our commitment to youth in care nationwide.
