Our Organization

We believe that older foster youth deserve a chance to prosper, and we're here to help them achieve that. Join us in our mission by donating suitcases with empowering messages. Let's make a difference, one suitcase at a time.

Dina Gerson, Simone Biles and Founder Brittney Sherell

Imagine being told you have five minutes to pack your belongings into a trash bag. For thousands of children entering foster care, this is their reality. But together, we can replace trash bags with  a suitcase filled with essentials and love.
