You Can Unlock Opportunity for a Parent Working Toward a Brighter Future!
You believe in education. You believe in second chances.
This September, you can allow a hardworking parent to continue their education – and change their family’s future forever.
Parents in our HandUp and LevelUp programs are courageously going back to school to build better lives. But many face an agonizing truth:
Tuition is out of reach.
They can’t afford books, software, or supplies.
They have the drive – but not the resources.
That is where you come in.
Your gift to the Continuing Education Grant Fund will help RaiseUp Families award ten $1,500 scholarships to parents of school-aged children who are working hard to rebuild their lives through education.
Here’s what your gift can do:
$50 helps cover books or online learning tools
$150 funds a professional exam or certification
$1,500 provides one full grant for a parent in needSee a firsthand account from Rosalyn of what your dollars can do for our members: https://sendspark.com/share/7nsc9d4bblj0lyv7

In Support of RaiseUp Families
RaiseUp Families stabilizes parents from vulnerable communities who face unexpected financial crises so their children can focus on their education, giving them the opportunity for a better life. These families live paycheck to paycheck and have fallen behind in rent due to an unexpected financial crisis.
Our mission is to stabilize families in their homes before an eviction occurs, then provide them with skills and resources to become self-sufficient so their children can focus on their education, giving them the opportunity for a better life. Established in 1994 as Westside Homeless Prevention (and later known as Westside Homeless Partnership), RUF’s founders completed 2 years of research on how best to create life-long stability.
