UpSpring

UpSpring’s mission is to empower children experiencing homelessness in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky by providing opportunities through education and enrichment. Our vision is to positively transform our communities by breaking the cycle of homelessness and poverty. UpSpring empowers the lives of over 4,000 local children experiencing homelessness each year. Since our founding in 1998, we've elevated more than 45,000 children experiencing homelessness.

As the region’s only non-profit that focuses exclusively on the educational needs of children experiencing homelessness, UpSpring has significant experience with and a deep understanding of this population, the educational issues they face, and the most effective ways to assist in their education. Our programs are rooted in trauma-informed care, with the belief that just one positive relationship can change a child’s life.
