We are Upbring, a Texas-wide organization implementing generational innovation to advance child wellbeing. That means sustainable change resulting in positive shifts across generations. Our legacy is one of consistent evolution. From the start, we were innovating and improving to more effectively meet the needs of our community. We continue that legacy today.  For more than a century – from the service-minded Lutherans who dreamed of building an orphanage in the 1860s to the vital programs in place today throughout Texas – we have proudly grown and adapted to the changing needs of society. Our story is marked by the continual practice of generational innovation, each moment in history building upon the next to impact the next generation of children, families and communities.  Although we have been known by different names throughout our history, the meaning behind our name today, Upbring, honors our past while promising a commitment to the future – one that is longstanding, innovative and designed to “bring up” children just as our predecessors have done throughout our history.
