Get Involved: LIFT’s Community Ambassador Program

Interested in spreading the word about LIFT to community members but aren’t sure where to start? Join LIFT’s Community Ambassadors for a neighborhood canvas! Our Community Ambassadors canvas the neighborhoods surrounding our offices to inform community members of LIFT’s services and resources. Contact our Outreach Coordinator Hoa Pham at hpham@liftcommunities.org to learn more about opportunities to canvas with LIFT clients and volunteers!

LIFT is a growing movement to combat poverty and expand opportunity for all people in the United States. LIFT currently runs centers staffed by trained volunteers in Boston, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC, to serve low-income individuals and families.

LIFT clients and volunteers work one-on-one to find jobs, secure safe and stable housing, make ends meet through public benefits and tax credits, and obtain quality referrals for services like childcare and healthcare. Simultaneously, the LIFT experience pushes volunteers to grapple with our country’s most challenging issues related to poverty, race, inequality, and policy. Since LIFT’s founding, over 6,000 volunteers have served more than 40,000 individuals and families.
