Our Services
We work to remove barriers through comprehensive support, guidance, and resources, facilitating their journey toward sustainable success and community engagement.
About Us / Our Story
In October 2023, First Foundations was founded to fill a gap in Knoxville. We serve 18-24 year old young adults who have aged out of foster care or emerging from homelessness. We remove barriers by providing comprehensive support, mentoring, and resources to facilitate their journey toward sustainable success and community engagement. We are rooted in the Christian principles of love, compassion, and service.
