Organization Description

UPchieve is a free, online tutoring platform that connects low-income students in the US with volunteer tutors any time they need it. UPchieve has over 32 subjects tutors can get certified in to help bridge the learning gap for some of our nation's most underserved youth. To date, UPchieve has reached 109,000 students, 97% of whom reported our site helped improve their grades.

Program Information

UPchieve's mission is to democratize access to academic support so that all students have an equal opportunity to finish high school, attend college, and achieve upward mobility.

Health & Safety

Our unique online platform allows students to securely work with youth in a one-on-one chat room. There are no video cameras during tutoring sessions and UPchieve's chat application will not allow inappropriate words or phrases to be sent. Feedback from both parties will be gathered at the end of each session and reviewed by the organization's staff. In addition, CSU students will have 24/7 access to UPchieve staff and other tutors on the site to ask questions and get immediate support through Slack.
