Mission Statement

Our Guiding Principles

Assisting transitional-aged youth beyond the age of 26.

WE LIFT LA empowers those forgotten youth with personal, supportive guidance.

About Us

Our Legacy, Our Vision

WE LIFT LA, picking up where Work of Angeles left off, has empowered emancipated foster youth since 2006.

We have changed our focus to assisting former foster youth beyond the age of 26 so they may receive more help after typical funding for support and services is no longer available.

Meet Angel

Former Foster Youth

Angel missed a lot of school growing up, mostly living on the streets before going into foster care. But with the help of WE LIFT LA he finally got his GED. WE LIFT LA board members were at the graduation cermony to cheer him on.  

Even amid such successes, WE LIFT LA needs help; the organization is currently looking for volunteer mentors as well as financial donations.

I thank God for putting you in my life … I wish you could tell everyone’s story of success in a world that limits people like me. I wish one day I could repay you for everything…
