Have a group looking for a volunteer opportunity? Collect and package 100 care kits for our Immigrant & Refugee Services Program! Collection and packaging can be done at your location.
For many people who are new refugees, low-income or experiencing homelessness, basic necessities such as shampoo, soap, a toothbrush and toothpaste can be a luxury that many of us take for granted. We provide care kits to the individuals we serve in Saint Paul and Minneapolis.
Our annual goal: Provide 100 kits consisting of:
- 1 deodorant
- 2 bars of soap
- 1 tube of toothpaste
- 1 toothbrush
- 1 shampoo
- 1 conditioner
- 1 body wash

Mission Statement
For nearly 70 years, healthy, stable families have been at the heart of Lifetrack. Our mission is to work together to develop the strengths within children, families and adults facing the greatest life challenges. Our whole-family approach addresses barriers related to poverty, disablity and trauma. Each day we help children reclaim a healthy start and provide families and caregivers the tools to pursue employment and economic opportunity.
Description
We focus on two areas:
- Child & Family Success - We serve 1,300 children annually who are at risk of developmental delays and educational failure due to poverty, disability and/or exposure to trauma/violence. We provide 3,400 children and adults therapeutic services and resources. Additionally, over 35,000 working adults seek our educational resources to learn how to balance work and family.
- Employment & Economic Opportunity - Each year we serve 1,300 adults as they find, keep and advance in their employment. Our comprehensive approach includes ongoing employment support to ensure individuals retain jobs by learning soft skills necessary in a complex work environment. Our largest and most specialized services are geared toward immigrants and refugees and individuals with disabilities.
