Accolades from Past Tour Sponsors

“We are proud to sponsor an organization that exposes the youth to different cultures and circumstances. We (Megaworld – RWM’s subsidiary) build communities, and we like Up with People’s programs because they empower people – and these are the kind of programs we’d like to support. What I like about this partnership is that we bridge different cultures.”

“Los Cabos is known by many tourists as a remote village for the locals. Having UWP for 3 weeks in Baja Califormia Sur left a long lasting impact on this quiet little state. One host Father said it was ‘…like bringing the world into your living room. I could never take my children to all those places.’ UWP students lived with families and interacted with youth; a breath of fresh air as most visitors are tourists.

Baseball stadiums from La Paz to the tip of the Baja were filled to capacity to share this wonderful message of bringing the world together.”

“UNFORGETTABLE. Up with People is a high-energy celebration of people, community and cultures for all ages! The performance is unlike any other. Spectators are astonished by these young men and women’s talents. The service the performers/staff  have provided the community in the last week is inspiring!”

“Up with People was a perfect match and our sponsorship has left a lasting impact on the lives of our clients and the communities at large. Even now, months after the Up With People event, I still hear talk about how Up with People’s visit was a life changing and inspirational experience.”

“I was able to go to the show and loved it! I am so happy that I had the privilege of meeting several of the wonderful UWP cast members while they were in town (and also some of the alumni at the end of the show). I’m really glad that your organization chose to visit DeRidder.”

“I thought last night’s show was a huge success, so my heartfelt thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make it happen. I’m delighted that the cast’s visit went well. The community service projects touched a lot of people; the sponsors and Habitat [beneficiary] are happy and the show was a hit. Hopefully [the UWP show] will be back soon. Again, thanks for a great week.”

“You delivered everything you promised and it went off beautifully. Your ability to work with young people was not only evident in your results, but also in the enthusiasm reflected in the glow that I saw beginning at 2:30am on January 1st through the finish of the parade. Lastly, thank you for your patience, your creative input and genuine commitment to make the show a spectacular start for the New Year.”

“The 2007 Newborn Hope, ‘Concert for Hope.’ was a great success largely due to Up with People’s amazing staff members. Up with People surpassed our expectations in every area and delivered a highly professional show that is ideal for corporations or non-profit organizations. What a pleasure to work with an organization that really understands meeting the needs of a client from start to finish.”

“Up with People presented a marvelous performance for our 2008 Retirement Dinner. From the first day I contacted them to reserve the date to the day of their performance, I was impressed with their detailed organization, responsive communication and understanding of the needs of their clientele. The performance was awesome and surpassed our expectations. There is no better way to bid farewell to our retirees who devoted many years to education than with such an amazing performance.”
