Upcap Services, Inc.

Upcap Services, Inc., doing business as Upcap, is a non-profit organization registered to receive federal government awards. As a corporate entity with tax-exempt status, Upcap has been actively engaged in federal grant programs, particularly in areas related to health, housing, and social services. The organization's focus appears to be on providing community-based services and support, with a strong emphasis on programs benefiting low-income families, children, and the elderly. Upcap's involvement in federal grant programs suggests it plays a significant role in implementing government-funded initiatives at the local level, serving as an intermediary between federal agencies and the communities they aim to assist.

Upcap's federal grant activities encompass a wide range of services and programs. Most notably, the organization received a $500,000 Project Grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control under the Lead Hazard Reduction Grant Program. This three-year grant, awarded in August 2024, aims to identify and control lead-based paint hazards in privately-owned housing where children under six reside, with the goal of protecting over 3,700 low-income homes from lead exposure risks. Additionally, Upcap has been involved in multiple sub-grant awards related to aging services, all part of the Annual Implementation Plan for 2024, with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services as the prime grantee. These sub-grants cover various aspects of elderly care and support, including nutrition, home-delivered meals, disease prevention, health promotion, and family caregiver support. Upcap also participates in Medicare/Medicaid counseling programs, further demonstrating its commitment to providing comprehensive health and social services to vulnerable populations.
