Our Charitable Partners
A portion of all Degrees of Transition proceeds goes to support our charitable partners in the Portland Metropolitan area:
Step It Up, Inc.
Step It Up, Inc., is a non profit organization that works to develop high school retention and graduation rates in Portland Public schools, by connecting youth with meaningful career opportunities.
Its mission is to provide youth with career knowledge, experiential learning, and continuous support to transform their futures. They accomplish their mission by supporting high school youth, and especially those of color and from lower socio-economic status, to achieve their education and career goals through participation in three youth career development programs.
