Uplift Syracuse
Organization
About


Uplift Syracuse is a progressive advocacy group, working to create a more equitable city and county by supporting candidates and policies that would advance social, racial, economic, and environmental justice efforts throughout the surrounding region.


Since it’s founding in 2017, Uplift has served as a vehicle of progressive change by recruiting, training, and supporting local candidates to run for office – but our real power comes from our members that are committed to supporting Uplift-endorsed candidates by volunteering and donating to their campaigns. 


Over the past year, Uplift has worked with local organizers, leaders, and advocacy organizations to develop a People’s Platform, which outline the priorities of Uplift, and partner organizations, and to guide our work. 


Our democratically led organization provides opportunities for members and the greater community to join the grassroots coalition effort to transform our city and county into one that works for all of us.
