Our mission is to inspire self-esteem in foster youth.

We serve over 2,000 foster youth in OR and SW Washington annually through our three programs: a store where foster youth can shop for free clothes, a paid internship for foster youth and WISH program.

We’re moving! 💛

After 10 years at the Lloyd Center, Project Lemonade is making a big move to a new space for youth navigating foster care — filled with warmth, color, comfort, and community.

Help us raise $10,000 by May 15 to move 15,000 clothing items and build a welcoming new home for the foster community. Every donation helps bring this space to life. ✨

❄️ ❄️ This week, our friends at PWI reached out with a special request, they’re taking their youth sledding for a day of pure snow-filled fun and wanted to make sure every young person stayed warm, comfortable, and ready to play. ❄️ ❄️

Because of our incredible community, we were able to provide coats, beanies, gloves, warm socks, and boots for all 18 kids heading out on this adventure. Knowing these young people get to laugh, explore, and make joyful winter memories, fully bundled and cared for, is exactly why we do what we do.

And yes… they even surprised our team with donuts 🍩 (which were VERY appreciated!).

We’re so grateful to be part of moments like these, where care, community, and a little winter magic come together to support youth in having fun, being kids, and feeling supported every step of the way.

If you or a young person you know is currently in, or recently out of foster care in Multnomah County, Project Lemonade is proud to offer L.Y.G.H.T. 💛

A grief support program led by teens and young adults, L.Y.G.H.T. creates a safe, welcoming space to talk, connect, and be reminded you’re not alone.

We believe every young person deserves community, understanding, and support through life’s hardest moments. Learn more about this program or make a referral https://www.projectlemonadepdx.org/programs/project-lemonade-lyght

Project Lemonade stands with youth and families most at risk from ICE actions and systemic marginalization.

💛 This Friday, Jan. 30, we’ve chose to remain open to support our community how we know best: showing up for every youth experiencing foster care and being a safe space for them. 💛

We support everyone engaging in this movement that is impacting youth in our community. Whether you’re participating in the strike or stopping by for care, we’re here. Every person deserves safety and dignity.
