Friends of the Children is proud to partner with Olympic gymnast and youth advocate Simone Biles to put children first! For over 30 years, we have matched paid, professional mentors - called Friends - with children who have big dreams to provide unwavering one-on-one support from kindergarten through high school graduation for 12+ years, no matter what.
The 2024 Put Children First Pledge is bringing together thousands of people who want to support children. By signing the pledge, you'll get connected to the work of Friends of the Children and together we can help youth who face some of the hardest things in life like foster care, mental health, poverty, housing insecurity, and more.
Why Join? There are no financial commitments or other actions required! We're simply asking you to sign the pledge to stay connected to the incredible work of Friends of the Children, hear inspiring success stories from across the national network, and to be a part of a community committed to making a difference for youth.
SIGN THE PUT CHILDREN FIRST PLEDGE TO BE A CHAMPION FOR CHILDREN WITH SIMONE BILES! HELP US MOVE CLOSER TO A FUTURE WHERE ONE DAY, EVERY CHILD WHO NEEDS A FRIEND HAS ONE.
Thank you for pledging to be part of a community that walks alongside youth for 12+ years, no matter what.
