Behind The Chair Foundation

Touch a Truck was a blast! We connected with so many incredible people.

A big thank you to the New Paltz Rotary Club for having us we definitely plan on joining you again next year!

Thank you to friends and family who showed up to support and visited our table.

Finally thank you to the community for donating everything that we needed for our table to be a success we even got 12 votes from the people!

Spread the word:
We are raising funds to support students with incarcerated parents who have faced adversity, helping them pursue higher education, trade certifications, and career pathways after high school.

Meet us at New Paltz Rotary Club Touch a-Truck from 9-3!

See ya there.

“Cosmetology didn’t just teach me hair… it gave me purpose, confidence, and a future.
As a child of an incarcerated parent, I could have become another statistic.
Instead, at 17 years old in Dutchess B.O.C.E.S cosmetology program, I found healing behind the chair.

Today, that journey became the foundation of why I fight to help other children know they are not forgotten.”

— Cynthia Moore, Founder

We need help.
Do you know a student that needs community hours?

Behind The Chair Foundation is gearing up for an exciting June filled with community connection and impact!

You can find us at the New Paltz Rotary Touch-A-Truck Event, where we’ll have an information booth sharing more about our mission and the work we are doing in our community.
Then join us at Beacon’s Juneteenth Riverfest, where we’ll be hosting a fun community photo booth experience for families and attendees to enjoy!

We are incredibly grateful for every partner, sponsor, volunteer, and supporter who continues to stand beside us. Because of your support, we are still going strong, still pushing forward, and still committed to changing lives and building brighter futures.

Today our mentee is taking his GED...if you believe in the power of prayer through Christ Jesus please keep him lifted in prayer today. 🙏🏼

Thank you to our incredible donors like Lynette Watson and others!

✨ Board Meeting...We’re Moving Forward! ✨

We had a powerful and positive board meeting tonight as we discussed all of our upcoming community events and the impact we’re believing for this year through the Amaryllis Scholarship for Higher Learning 🌸

We are especially excited to share that we now have a student we are actively working with, helping them take the next step toward enrolling in cosmetology school in Newburgh. This is exactly why we do what we do… changing lives through opportunity 💇🏽‍♀️

As we prepare for our upcoming events to build awareness and momentum, we still have a few items needed from our Amazon Wish Lists. Every donation—big or small—helps us show up well, serve our community, and support students like this one.

If you’ve been looking for a way to give back, this is it 🙏🏽

Your support truly makes a difference.
