The program has proven to be instrumental to our students and families

…Every week, Upward Thrive Academy delivers weekend backpacks for our students who are in need of additional food to help support them during the weekend. It provides families with access to healthy food on the weekend who experience food insecurity. In addition to this support, Upward Thrive Academy has provided turkeys for our holiday baskets, coats for our winter coat distribution and socks. We continue to partner to determine programs for our school and how Upward Thrive Academy can support. The Upward Thrive Academy program has proven to be instrumental to our students and families who look forward to receiving their weekend backpack each week.
