ORGANIZATION: StandUp for Kids - National

"We are a program that goes to the streets and helps homeless and street kids. We feed, clothe, and counsel them, helping kids get off the streets. Our volunteers are consistently making the difference in the lives of hundreds of homeless and street kids on a weekly basis." Whatever your skills or time commitment, we can use your help! STANDUP FOR KIDS has been recognized by the White House on three occasions, the U.S. Justice Department, The Governor's Office for Children, Arizona on two occasions, the Secretary of State for Colorado, American Express, AT&T and USWest, and has been awarded the prestigious JCPenney Golden Rule Award. "We tell homeless and street kids that we care about them and then go to the streets and prove it!" After receiving our extensive training program, Outreach Counselors go to the streets, for a few hours each week, to help homeless and street kids. We take food, clothes, hygiene products, and information to help the kids that believe no one any longer cares.. We do!

Mission Statement

The mission is to end the cycle of youth homelessness throughout the United States. We do this, every day, in cities across America. We carry out our mission through our volunteers who go to the streets in order to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and street kids improve their lives.

Description

StandUp for Kids fights to end youth homelessness by providing resources to homeless and at-risk kids. Resources range from basic hygiene, healthcare, counseling, mentoring, and drug and alcohol rehabilitation to support through our four core programs: Street Outreach, Mentoring, Outreach Centers and Apartment Support.

Aside from these resources and services, StandUp for Kids provides a caring community who values all homeless and at-risk youth. Our mentors and volunteers establish non-threatening relationships with youth and provide them with the love and support of family, helping guide them to independence, education, and self-sufficiency.
