Hi there, my name is LilCrystal Dernier. Yes, that’s my real name! In case you’re unsure how to pronounce it, it’s Li-Kris-tel. Growing up in foster care, I learned to navigate complex support systems, developing a resourcefulness that became my greatest asset. This challenging journey inspired me to create UrFuture, a groundbreaking platform designed to support young adults like me. UrFuture is more than just a platform; it’s a lifeline that bridges the gap between aspiration and achievement for foster youth. Our mission is clear: to empower, support, and uplift, helping individuals overcome barriers and realize their full potential.

UrFuture is designed with the user in mind, featuring a user-friendly interface that ensures ease of navigation. We offer personalized recommendations based on individual needs and goals, providing access to relevant resources and opportunities. Our platform is crafted to be a supportive tool for every user, guiding them toward their personal and professional aspirations.

The impact of UrFuture is amplified through our strategic partnerships and collaborations. We work closely with government agencies, nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, employers, and other stakeholders to enhance our reach and effectiveness. These collaborations enable us to provide comprehensive support and create meaningful opportunities for foster youth.

Consider Michael’s story. Adopted at the age of four, Michael faced significant challenges as he grew up. Although he attended college, he accumulated substantial debt and had little knowledge of the benefits available to him. Returning to his home state, Michael discovered that he was eligible for a tuition waiver—a benefit he had been unaware of. With this newfound support, Michael is now serving in the army while pursuing his bachelor’s degree. Michael’s journey highlights a crucial aspect of UrFuture’s mission: recognizing and supporting all individuals with lived experience in foster care, including those who were adopted.

According to the latest statistics, over 20,000 youth age out of foster care annually. Each one has a story and a future, and UrFuture is dedicated to ensuring that barriers do not keep them from reaching their dreams.

UrFuture is more than a platform—it’s a movement. It’s about rewriting the narrative for an entire community. It’s about proving that with the right support, resilience, and determination, anything is possible. For those who have faced unimaginable challenges, UrFuture offers a beacon of hope, showing that their future is theirs to shape.

As we look to the future, UrFuture is committed to expanding its reach and impact. We’re not just creating opportunities; we’re building a community of empowerment and possibility. I invite you to join us on this journey—whether as a supporter, partner, or investor. Together, we can create a brighter tomorrow where every young person has the tools and support they need to succeed

With UrFuture, empowerment starts here. Dreams take flight, and endless opportunities await. Let’s bridge the gap, unlock potential, and build a future where every foster youth, including those who were adopted, can thrive.
