StandUp For Kids -

Welcome to
StandUp For Kids - .

The mission of StandUp For Kids is ending the cycle of youth homelessness.

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.
