Our Story
Founded to give all youth access to growth opportunities, FOSTY partners with local organizations, businesses, and supporters to provide scholarships, admission to education and experiential programs and leadership opportunities. Investing in our children's future builds a stronger community and healthier outcomes for all of us.
Our Vision
Southampton Town is a very special community with so much to offer, yet not all families are able to take advantage of these opportunities. Often, we don’t see those who are left out, children and teens who quietly sit out while their peers participate. FOSTY strives to give everyone the same opportunity to thrive, grow, and excel. With your help we can reach more young people. We see a Southampton where all youth can learn, grow, and succeed. By breaking financial barriers and promoting leadership and involvement, we aim to empower young people to realize their full potential and lead our community forward.
Our Mission

supplies to students who may not have access to
programs and learning experiences.
