Our Mission

Breaking cycles,
building futures

Founded in 2014, Uplift holds that education, stable housing, and economic opportunity are the three pillars of lasting change. We work inside the communities we serve, not from a distance.

92 cents of every dollar goes to programs. We publish audited financials and a full annual report each year.

I finished the 12-week healthcare track and had a job offer before graduation. Uplift changed my whole year.
