Who We Are
At Lift Up Communities, we aim to develop a replicable and measurable framework centered around stabilizing low-wage workers and their communities.
Our 501c3 and LLC structure maximizes our ability to expand our impact on individuals. The symbiotic relationship between the two entities allows us to help LiftUp Enterprises employees, as well as their friends and families, navigate social services and employment opportunities.
