The Experience of a lifetime

The Starfish Foundation, Inc. is a 501 (c)(3) youth development agency established to strengthen the lives of at-risk youth through programs and activities that foster ethical, social, physical and intellectual development.

We strive to develop and deepen pro-social values such as integrity, service, discipline, personal responsibility, self reliance, and respect for others - qualities we believe are essential to leading humane and productive lives.

A more in depth look at our program...

An old man is walking along the beach when he sees a young boy throwing a starfish into the sea.
As the man gets closer, he realizes the tide has washed thousands of the creatures onto the beach.
The boy continues to slowly toss them into the sea, one by one.
The old man says, "This beach is covered with starfish. Do you really think what you are doing will make a difference?"
The boy picks up another starfish and throws it back into the water.
Without a second thought, he replies, "It makes a difference to this one."
