The partner Founded in 1998, LIFT is a national nonprofit headquartered in D.C. with sites across the U.S. LIFT’s mission is to break the cycle of poverty by investing in parents. LIFT’s one-on-one coaching program empowers parents to set and achieve goals – such as going back to school, improving credit, eliminating debt, or securing a living wage – that put their families on the path to economic mobility.
