Testimonials

I was pretty much on the edge of homelessness, I’m grateful to get into a few programs here that helped me, and my family get into a living situation recently. We needed food and groceries, so we ended up walking over a mile to get to the UP Orlando Center.  We were able to get so much food at their Member Share Grocery Program so that was a big, big, life changer for us.  I enrolled into their Success Training Employment Program; it encouraged me to stay self-motivated and to have the drive to keep going forward no what I was going through. 

Upon completion of the STEP Program, Graylin has secured employment as a Manger at a local restaurant and is on his way to economic self-sufficiency.

“Volunteering at UP Orlando was such a meaningful experience for our team. It was even more special as we celebrated reaching 100,000 volunteer hours as an organization alongside rookie, Tristan Da Silva. From sorting and stocking the Member Grocery Center to seeing firsthand the impact of UP’s mission, we left feeling inspired and grateful to be part of something bigger than ourselves. The staff made us feel so welcome, and it was incredible to work together in a way that truly benefits the community. We can’t wait to come back!”
