Giving Where You Live

Impact Spotlight - Your donations changing lives!

Soup Kitchen - Lift Up Program--Grantee Recipient


Former foster care individual, Joquan H., gained employment at Eataly, the new multifunctional marketplace dedicated to Italian excellence. Joquan came to LiftUP after a chaotic upbringing; nevertheless, his passion for cooking and eagerness to learn were obvious from day 1! Each week, Joquan came prepared and often mentored others in the class. He cites LiftUP's program and specifically the Interview Preparedness class as the keys to landing his job at Eataly. He currently works as a baker and sees tremendous opportunity for professional development with the organization. He looks forward to eventually opening his own restaurant one day. This is just one example of how the funds provided by the Polo Club Foundation make a positive impact for underserved communities.
