SPEAK UP — A VOICE & INCOME

Speak Up equips people facing homelessness with a magazine that releases their voice and
gives them a chance to work. As they buy and sell Speak Up magazines, they discover dignity,
new skills, and a pathway off the streets.

Speak Up is a 501(c)3 nonprofit. Your support is vital.

HOMELESS? TRANSFORM YOUR STORY NOW.

If you are facing homelessness, you can write for Speak Up and sell the magzine. Your first 20
copies of the magazine are free. You’ll sell them for $5 per copy and keep all the cash! Then
you can buy more magazines for $1 each–and you always keep the money from your sales.

This starts a cycle of self-elevation and financial opportunity that has no limits. Through diligent
work, you can quickly get and stay off the streets.
