A Life Transformational Magazine

Reach UP is the only magazine to empower and encourage marginalized women.

 Welcome to REACH UP Magazine!

Reach UP is a magazine created for women in difficult circumstances—prison cells, shelters, rehab centers, government housing, and tough urban or rural neighborhoods. No matter where she lives, we believe she is valuable and her story is not over.

 

 

 

Over 21 million women live at or below the line of poverty in America.

More than 1 million women are under the supervision of the criminal justice system.

Their needs are great, but the print world has largely overlooked them.

Her world is often anything but inspiring.

It’s challenging. It’s hard.

Many of the resources around her are either boring, overwhelming, or simply not created with her in mind.
She rarely sees hope-filled, high-quality media that reflects her reality and honors her dignity.

  • We speak to women with little to no expendable income.
  • Our writers understand life in government housing food pantry lines thrift stores and stretching every dollar for a family. 
  • We also serve women in pregnancy centers residential treatment homes and shelters or homes for survivors of trafficking and exploitation. 
  • We address the realities of life inside prison and the challenges of coming home as an ex-offender. 
  • We distribute through ministries nonprofits and individuals who walk closely with the women we serve. 
  • Our articles inspire empower and relate to her world with content on: 
Relationships & Family • My Spiritual Life • Home & Lifestyle • Gritty Life Issues • Beauty & Fitness • Becoming a Better Me • Woman to Woman

THREE PHASES OF LONG-TERM

Poverty Relief

Reach UP is provided free of charge to each woman and to the ministries and organizations* that distribute it.

Your partnership helps us place hope-filled, high-quality resources into the hands of women who might otherwise never receive anything like this.

As long as poverty, injustice and inequality persist, none of us can truly rest. But it doesn’t take much to change a life.

Take a next step today.

Beautiful Publication

Crystal and the team at Reach UP put together a beautiful publication and are great to work with. The first batch of Reach UP magazines that we received was quickly picked up and taken home by our community members, and our staff loved being able to share the magazines with them.

Very Appropriate

We soldier at an urban corps, found it to be very appropriate, encouraging and culturally sensitive. At the present time, TSA does not have a resource specifically geared towards urban living/ministry, and feel it would be a great help to our women.
