Frequently Asked Questions

What is The Life Quest Foundation's primary mission?

The Life Quest Foundation provides scholarships to adopted daughters who face many of the challenges and trauma that often accompany children who are adopted. These children are often a more vulnerable population who are more susceptible to harm or unsafe environments. Scholarships relieve the financial burdens on families and ultimately allow their daughter to attend Life Quest Girls Academy where they can be safe, focus on their education, develop personal growth, all while giving families and children the space they need to heal.

Who benefits from my donation to The Life Quest Foundation?

Who is Life Quest Girls Academy?

How does the foundation choose scholarship recipients?

Scholarships are awarded based on the financial need of families and the challenges their adopted daughters are facing. The selection process ensures that donations go to families who need the most support. Donations can also be specific to already enrolled students and their family's financial obligations at Life Quest.

How can my donation impact an adopted daughter’s future?

Your donation ultimately allows adopted families to stay together! By providing a valuable resource to these families, relinquishment is no longer the only financially viable option to help families and children heal when trauma and RAD become bigger than love. The chaos and pain that comes with attachment disorders are real and scary, and often times adopted families are left with no other choice than to return an adopted child to foster care when that child continues to reject their love and family structure. The recipients of these scholarships enroll at Life Quest Girls Academy where they can peacefully begin to focus on healthy family relationships, gain access to education, life skills, and a supportive environment. All of this provides these underprivileged girls the opportunity to heal, grow, and return home better equipped for life and future relationships.
