For the first time, our Executive Director, Amy Meredith, will be attending the National Women’s Shelter Network Conference. We are so excited for the opportunity to connect with representatives from other women’s shelters across the country!

UPLift 2023 was a night to remember! For the first time we hosted at the Frazier History Museum, and even had a cocktail hour before our program started. Over 300 people were in attendance as we had the opportunity to share our story, progress, and goals for the year. This year in addition to our bourbon and wine pull and auctions, we also introduced a raffle that was a huge success! 

On Friday, July 14th, UP celebrated our 5 year anniversary!  We were thrilled to partner with Kroger to help us throw a birthday party for our clients that included lunch and birthday treats. We also, for the very first time opened our doors to our supporters during operating hours.  This allowed those who joined us  to see our amazing team working on our mission to break the barriers to help women, children and marginalized genders leave homelessness for good. 

30 Guests with $30. Help us be a solution for homeless women and children in Louisville!
