THE RE-UP ROOM
The Re-Up Room
Fresh Fits. Fresh Start. One less thing to worry about on day one — because backpacks don’t always carry what they need, but we do.
When youth enter foster care, they often arrive with little more than the clothes on their backs. The Re-Up Room exists to change that moment from one of lack into one of dignity.
We provide emergency essentials — like clean outfits, hygiene kits, and affirming extras — so that every young person placed in a new home can feel like themselves, right from the start. No digging through donation bins. No reminders of what they’ve lost. Just a reset — with care.
And for caregivers? It’s one less urgent errand. One less emotional weight. One more way we make the first 72 hours of a placement a little easier.
Whether it’s a fresh t-shirt, a toothbrush, or a quiet moment of normalcy — we’ve got what doesn’t fit in a file folder.
🧡 A Gentle Reminder:
All we ask is that you only take what’s truly needed — so that we can continue helping as many youth and caregivers as possible.
This space is built on community, trust, and shared compassion
