Summer Fundraising:
For many of the young people Project Libertad serves, summer has looked very different. They've experienced displacement, uncertainty, language barriers, and the challenges of starting over in a new country.

This summer, you can help change that. Your gift gives immigrant youth the opportunity to experience the joy, confidence, and belonging that every child deserves. Because every child deserves a summer filled with hope!

Even small monthly gifts create real impact:

• $10/month → School supplies for a student
• $25/month → Mentorship session each month
• $50/month → Youth workshop - Summer camp
• $100/month → Mental health support and counseling
• $500/month → Support for a family for a month
• $1,000/month → Support for immigration paperwork and legal representation

Monthly giving is simple, automatic, and incredibly powerful.

Mission and Vision:

Project Libertad is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that empowers newcomer immigrant youth and their families in the Greater Philadelphia Area by providing essential, youth-led, and youth-centered legal and social services. Project Libertad envisions a world where all newcomer immigrant youth have access to the legal services, social services, academic support, and leadership opportunities needed to thrive.

Who We Serve:

Project Libertad serves newcomer immigrant youth in the Greater Philadelphia Area.

Project Libertad provides social services primarily in Chester, Bucks, and Montgomery counties, and legal services to youth across PA. Community strengths that further Project Libertad’s work with immigrant youth include resiliency, perseverance, optimism, adaptability, tenacity, and gratitude.
