About Us

The mission of Orangewood Foundation is to prepare foster and community youth to reach their greatest potential. Founded in 1981, Orangewood is one of the leading providers of services to these teens and young adults. Foundation programs focus on four critical areas: health & wellness, housing, life skills & employment, and education. Annually, Orangewood serves almost 2,000 youth. Beyond its programs, for thousands of youth in our community, Orangewood means “family,” “opportunity,” and “hope.”
