Will You StandUp For Kids?
The mission of StandUp For Kids is to help homeless and street kids.
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.
Our focus goes beyond street outreach and extends to deterrence and resource
programs that we provide in schools and via the internet. But all facets
of our mission are guided by the mandate that our volunteers shall tell
kids they care about them and then, at every point, prove it.
Publishers Clearing House surprises StandUp For Kids with a check for $25,000 from the PCH Give Back fan vote!

LeAnn Rimes "Give" video featuring homeless youth is out now!
Please check out LeAnn Rimes' video for "Give"! The video was shot in Chicago with some of the homeless and street youth in our Chicago program.
Read her blog post, titled "Life Changing", about the video shoot here:
LeAnn Rimes, in filming the video for her new song "GIVE" spent the day in Chicago with some of our homeless and street kids. She said: "I really fell in love with them too. My life is forever changed. One thing they said is no one looks them in the eye when they see them on the streets, so there's a deep loneliness there and a feeling of almost not existing. I will now always look anyone who's homeless in the eye and smile. That smile could make their whole day. It could make them feel like they are alive and a part of the world."
