Enable Higher Up students to get to work.

The “Let’s Go!” Student Transportation Fund literally – and crucially – gets Higher Up students to work. Students who experience transportation challenges to and from their summer placements receive vouchers for taxi services or stipends for gas. While Higher Up strives to match each student with their best-fit summer job, if they can’t travel to that job, it becomes an opportunity lost!

Enable Higher Up students to shine brighter on the job.

We know we’re better when we work together.

Higher Up is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit and is run by a small staff and mighty team of volunteers. Students are never charged a participation fee and do not incur any expenses associated with the program. Approximately 47% of the student body in the East Windsor Regional School District, where Higher Up operates, is under- resourced as measured by participation in the Free Lunch Program. Higher Up works to remove barriers to success, and donations and sponsorships are essential in funding student programs and services and offsetting day-to-day operating costs. Financial support of Higher Up enables local students to dream bigger and work to acquire the skills and experiences necessary to achieve their career and life goals. As commitment to the next generation of impassioned workforce grows, so does a shared sense of community connection and social impact.
