“Children are the world’s most valuable resource and its best hope for the future.” John F. Kennedy

Who We Are

Dancing with Fireflies Foundation is a 100% woman-led, volunteer-run nonprofit. As a 501(c)(3), we bridge the gap between uncertainty and possibility for our community’s most vulnerable youth. We believe that when individuals unite, their collective light creates profound change, ensuring no child or teen has to navigate their journey in the dark.

Our Mission

To shine a light in the darkest places for children and teens at every stage of their journey. From the moment a child enters the foster system to the day a young adult steps into their first independent home, we provide the essential sparks of support that transform lives and inspire lasting hope for a brighter, more secure future for every youth we serve.
