Through UpSpring Resource Collaborative, we work with over 75 direct service providers (such as schools, shelters, and agencies) to identify and meet the needs of children experiencing homelessness by providing items that they need to attend & succeed in school.

The items include bus passes & gas cards, school supplies, book bags, school uniforms, personal hygiene items and more. It is through our collective approach for improving school achievement that we are able to have a measurable impact on the children we serve and our community as a whole. 


HOW IT WORKS

We partner with 75+ schools, shelters, and agencies to identify student needs and provide essentials like transportation support, school supplies, uniforms, and hygiene items to help children experiencing homelessness succeed in school.
