Lift Up Tucson is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to helping individuals raise themselves out of poverty and into successful careers. We believe that with the right resources and assistance, anyone can overcome the challenges of poverty and achieve their dreams. Our programs are designed to provide individuals with the support they need to succeed.

We understand that many individuals in poverty lack the skills and education needed to secure high-paying jobs, so we provide cash assistance to individuals while they learn the skills they need to become finance and tax professionals.

We also understand that individuals in poverty face a number of challenges beyond just their lack of skills and education. That's why we offer assistance with child care, transportation, and business apparel. These services help to remove some of the barriers that individuals face when trying to secure employment and build successful careers.

At Lift Up Tucson, we are committed to helping individuals overcome poverty and achieve their dreams. We believe that everyone deserves the chance to succeed, and we are here to provide the resources and assistance needed to make that happen.
