About Us
Prince George’s County, Maryland is often known for the relative prosperity in its Black community. Pull Up For Prince George’s was born out of a desire to celebrate this Black excellence, while recognizing room for growth in historically excluded parts of the county.
Pull Up For Maine will address inequities throughout the state of Maine by supporting causes for Black, Indigineous, and other People of Color, as well as historically excluded rural and immigrant communities.
We are Pulling Up to underserved communities, and connecting them with the resources they need to thrive.
Pull Up Fund supports underserved communities by investing in local causes:
1
Youth Programs
Pull Up Fund supports efforts to ensure today’s youth have access to programs that support all aspects of their development.
2
Mental Health
Pull Up Fund aims to increase access to mental health support services, especially for historically underserved communities.
3
Re-entry Supports
Pull Up Fund supports efforts that ease the re-entry process for individuals returning to the community from incarceration.
Our team is committed to creating lasting change in the communities of Prince George’s County, Maryland and throughout the state of Maine.
