Inner city students are handicapped as their schools are poorly equipped and poorly staffed.

That barrier alone has caused many to drop out of high school

Uplift Inc.  has been removing  those obstacles and barriers to create College Preparatory Schools right in the middle of Urban America. 

We have been the invisible fuel to removing those barriers. Provide the fuel to the process moving forward.

Here are the results of our barrier removal. Quite impressive!!!!

With new School District Leadership the barrier removal process can grow faster.
