Their mission is to end the cycle of youth homelessness throughout the United States.

StandUp For Kids is a national non-profit charity. Our organization was founded in 1990 by a group of volunteers in San Diego, CA. Starting from a program in one city, StandUp For Kids has grown to a national organization. They remain a nearly all-volunteer organization.

StandUp For Kids continuously strives to provide life-saving and outreach services to homeless, street kids and at-risk youth. StandUp For Kids is primarily a nighttime program, with volunteers walking the streets in the evening, distributing food, clothing, hygiene products, distributing resource information, referrals, and offering an 888 number where the kids can reach a StandUp For Kids counselor in each of our cities nationwide.

Please join The Thursday Club Juniors in support of StandUp For Kids by bidding on our online auction starting on April 1st! All money raised will be donated to the founding branch right here in San Diego!!!
