About me: The mission of STANDUP FOR KIDS is to help homeless and street kids. This mission shall be carried out by a national volunteer force whose on-the-streets outreach efforts will find, stabilize and assist homeless and street kids in their efforts to improve their lives. The organization's mission shall also be furthered through deterrence and resource programs provided in schools and via the Internet. All facets of this mission shall be guided by the mandate that our volunteers shall tell kids they care about them and then, at every turn, prove it.
If you are thinking of running away, if you are homeless, or if you know of someone who is, please give us a call any time of the day, any day of the week. You can speak to us in confidence and we will be there to help you stay safe, fed, and connected.

Special Thanks To Our Volunteers From Pennsylvania!
19 SEPA Synod teens and mentors visited StandUp For Kids Miami on 7/5/08 and helped us purchase food for our outreach kits, and assembled over 200 hygeine and food kits. They created a beautiful mural to hang in our future outreach center and hung flyers around downtown while participating in a practice outreach walk. Thanks for such a fantastic day!
