Description:
Lift Kids is a Minnesota-based nonprofit service enterprise taking action on the plight of impoverished children via a philanthropic franchise model centered around what we call the Lift Kids Village. We have assembled a volunteer corps of experts ready to go build villages and seed sustainable change..

Without concern for boundaries, borders, or divisions of any kind, we go to the places where children are starving and dying every day and build Lift Kids Villages that both alleviate immediate suffering by housing, feeding, and clothing kids, as well as empower them through education and entrepreneurial training.

How big is this cause?
