Every youth who enters our program is eligible to receive a free cell phone and service plan.

THRU Project created its cell phone program because we believe that by removing the communication barrier, we can dramatically improve our foster youth's mental health, wellness, and overall success outcomes.

This program works in tandem with our volunteer mentor program as a phone-in-hand is an essential lifeline between mentor and mentee.

Eligibility Requirements:

• Current or former foster youth
• Between the ages of 14-25
• Actively participating in the THRU Project mentoring program for three months (or longer)
• Employed or going to school
