Youth From Oceanside Now Gives Back As Volunteer

Here's some of her story, in her own words...
 

"I started going to StandUp For Kids in 2010. They fed me and clothed me, helped me find a job, and a place to live. They have supported me and lifted me up. The personnel even went out of their way to make sure I was okay. They took their personal time to be there for me. Words aren't enough to describe the wonderful things they have done for me and many others. I'm so thankful for them. Kim and Jackie were like a mom to me. If I had a problem and didn't know what to do I always had them to talk to and give me feedback. I loved going to StandUp, it allowed me to take a break from the cruel situation I was in…I can honestly say that if it wasn't for them I would have starved to death and I probably wouldn't still be breathing to tell this story now."

We've Redesigned Our Website With You in Mind!

StandUp For Kids is proud to launch our newly redesigned website: www.standupforkids.org

The primary objectives of our site development effort were focused on aesthetics, simplifying our content, and increasing the visibility of our programs. The new design also allows for streamlined menus, clear navigation, and a responsive layout for all platforms. Explore the site to learn more about our full spectrum of services!

A special thanks to Brian, Matt, Eddy, and the entire team participating in the redesign process.
