ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW
FFY was established in 1979 to empower young people and inspire community connection through mentorship and community relationships. Our vision is simple: to provide every young person who needs a mentor with a mentor. We support children who would otherwise go unserved, with an emphasis on positive youth development, social‑emotional health and wellness, prevention services, and critical skills for future self‑sufficiency.
With a mission to empower underserved youth through mentorship and community relationships, FFY has helped over 4,500 youth reach their full potential. We serve very low and low‑income Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) families from South San Francisco to San Jose. Nationally recognized, yet deeply local, we partner closely with local schools and nonprofits, with a concentrated focus in high‑need areas such as South San Francisco, North Fair Oaks, Redwood City, East Palo Alto and Sunnyvale. 10% of our kids identify as LGBTQIA+, and 5% come from unconventional family structures. Over the years, FFY has become a trusted leader in the mentoring space, known for fostering meaningful, long‑lasting relationships between youth and their mentors and service providers.
Our work is guided by a set of core values that shape our approach and deepen our impact:
Equity and social justice
Individual and organizational integrity
Community‑centered collaboration
Respectful, supportive relationships
Innovation and agility
Responsive, high‑quality service
Today, FFY operates with a dedicated, full‑time team of nine, supported by a committed and engaged twelve‑member board. The annual operating budget is over $1 million.
OUR PROGRAMS 1-to-1 Mentoring
We first established our 1-to-1 Mentoring Services program to provide direct, community‑based support to low‑income youth in San Mateo County and Northern Santa Clara County. We prioritize protecting vulnerable youth populations and fostering high‑quality mentoring relationships that stand the test of time. To date, we've made over 2,500 matches, with more than 92% of participants completing the full one‑year program (compared to 67-77% in similar programs), and we maintain a 100% volunteer safety rating.
Group Mentoring
In 2016, in response to a substantial need brought to us by Sequoia High School, we launched a school‑based group mentoring program to address rising dropout rates among low‑income 9th graders of color in our local communities. Since then, we've expanded the program to 23 additional schools and community sites, now serving students from 5th through 12th grade. Students facing academic challenges, behavioral and mental health issues, poverty, and social isolation are identified by the school and supported through group mentoring sessions held on campus.
Whole Health for Youth
FFY serves as the backbone agency for the Whole Health for Youth (WHY) Collaborative, a dynamic network of local organizations working together to improve the mental health and wellness of youth and their families. Founded in 2018, WHY was created to coordinate prevention and early intervention services, share data, eliminate duplicative efforts, and streamline access to mental health resources-making it easier for families to navigate the system and get the support they need. Through this collaborative approach, we're bridging critical gaps in mental health care and delivery across our communities.
