United Against Poverty St. Lucie - Serving Fort Pierce Since 2003.

From the very beginning, UP St. Lucie was destined to be a different kind of nonprofit, one focused on providing a hand UP, not a handout. The organization was founded around the Member Share Grocery Program, empowering individuals, and families to choose the food and household essentials that best meet their unique needs while preserving dignity and fostering self-sufficiency. As participation grew, members shared a desire for additional support services to be available in one convenient location.

Today, UP St. Lucie offers a variety of programs and services, including crisis care, food and household assistance, workforce development and training, connections to community resources and collaborative partners, and much more. As the needs of our community continue to evolve, so does our commitment to expanding opportunities that help individuals and families achieve long-term stability and self-sufficiency.

Our Purpose: To empower families and individuals to lift themselves to sustainable economic self-sufficiency.
