UP for Women and Children

Our model is simple, partner with anyone who can help to address the issue of homelessness.

In 2016, we identified a community need for women: a safe space for homeless women and children to go during the day to access showers, laundry, case managers and social services. Founders Andrea and Amy, began a needs assessment by meeting with over 16 service providers and nearly 40 homeless women who were living on the streets and sleeping in the shelters. They were met with overwhelming support and so in 2017 Uniting Partners for Women and Children was founded.

Thank you for joining us at UPlift and helping make this year’s event such an incredible success. Because of your generosity, we raised more than $200,000 to support our mission and the women and children who rely on UP every day.

The work doesn’t stop here, and neither does the impact we can make together. If you plan to participate in Give for Good Louisville, we hope you’ll consider supporting UP on that day. Your gift will help us continue expanding services and meeting the growing needs of our community.

We also invite you to join us on September 12 for A Curious Woman at Actors Theatre at 7:00 pm. Proceeds from the performance will benefit UP, and we would love to see you there!
