The Up with People Foundation was created to carry forward a powerful legacy, one that began in 1965 with a bold idea: that young people, when empowered, can be a force for good in the world.
Born out of the international organization known as Up with People, the Foundation exists to extend that mission in new and lasting ways. For over five decades, Up with People has inspired and equipped young adults to build bridges across cultures, foster understanding, and create positive social change.
The Up with People Foundation was established to ensure that the spirit of Up with People lives on through the initiatives and individuals that share its vision for a more inclusive and sustainable world. One meaningful way to continue the journey is by supporting like-minded changemakers whose work reflects the values that have guided us since the beginning. The Up with People Foundation champions youth leadership, cross-cultural understanding, and community transformation, whether it’s through a grassroots service project, a global exchange, or a new platform for dialogue.
This is more than a continuation. It’s a legacy in motion. Join us as we uplift the next generation of leaders, and pass it forward together.
