The Upland Community Foundation is proud to support multiple organizations and projects throughout the city of Upland.Â
Friends of Upland Animal Shelter
Friends of Upland Animal Shelter was formed solely out of a desire to support the Upland Animal Shelter so that it can provide a high quality of animal care and find homes for as many animals as possible. We have worked in a collaborative manner with the City since our inception and today are honored to operate the sheltering and adoption functions at Upland Animal Shelter on behalf of the City.
Community Emergency Response Team
Upland CERT, serving under the direction of the Upland Police Department, works to train citizens to act in emergencies. To date, over 250 Upland residents have been through the 24 hour, FEMA directed, training program. In addition, Upland CERT members are called on to assist Police Department and Fire Department personnel in emergencies, as well during public service opportunities.
Upland Adopt A Soldier Military Banner
The Upland Adopt A Soldier Military Banner Program is a non profit organization that raises money for banners to be hung throughout the City of Upland to recognize our Men and Women who are actively serving in the military and protecting our country. It is run by volunteers and all banners are purchased and placed using the donations received.
Homeless Outreach Program
The Homeless Outreach Program has been developed by the Upland Police Department. This project is focused on raising funds to serve those that find themselves in a crisis situation and are homeless in our community.
Upland Veterans' Monument
The Upland Veterans’ Monument Project features a 14-foot-tall pentagon black granite monument topped with a bronze American Eagle. The history of each branch of service, as well as information about U.S. military conflicts and campaigns, are included on each panel of the monument and on instructive kiosks located throughout the plaza of the City of Upland Library and City Hall.
