Education plays a crucial role in a child’s future. In a positive educational environment, kids not only learn about English, math and science, but they hone life skills such as critical thinking, problem solving and navigating peer relationships.
Sadly, the more often children are moved around, the less likely they are to finish their education. In fact, statistics show that only about 50 percent of children in foster care graduate high school, and only 3 percent earn a college degree. Upbring is committed to reversing this trend.
The children we serve are talented and working hard to move toward a better life. We believe in every single child, and we will do everything possible to give all children an opportunity to shine.
