Everybody without exception struggles in life at times. There is not a person on this planet that can make it by themselves. We may feel alone with our problems, unable to discuss them with our friends or family because they seem too busy and we do not want to burden them. However, it is normal to have problems, need help and to find things difficult. Ignoring the truth can be worse. Get Up 8 Foun
dation was formed by a small group of friends who believe in the importance of a strong, well-supported community. We are putting into place fund development opportunities to aid individuals, families and groups in our community who have fallen on hard times and need assistance to overcome their challenges. This is a foundation about helping people bounce back from struggles that life has thrown in their path. The Get Up 8 Foundation is also a movement to help people reach a higher level of awareness and consciousness to give back to their community. All Get Up 8 Board of Directors and staff are volunteers. No salaries or retribution is paid in working for the organization.
