UPrep is proud to participate in the 2026 Huddle for Hunger High School Challenge in partnership with Wegmans, the Buffalo Bills Foundation, and Foodlink.

Our Senior Student Government leaders are taking the lead— brainstorming creative ways to motivate our school community, building excitement, and helping execute the campaign.

Donation boxes are available at both our Maple Street and Lake Avenue campuses during regular school hours. We will be collecting nonperishable food donations through September 19.

This is about more than collecting food. It is another opportunity for our young men to lead, serve their community, and create new ways for UPrep students to support others.

You will be hearing directly from them as the campaign continues!

What a day at UPrep! 💙💛

Our UPrep Experience Day is officially in the books, and we want to say THANK YOU.

Thank you to every staff member, coordinator, volunteer, community partner, alumnus, family, and student who helped bring today together. Events like this do not happen by accident. They happen because people show up, serve, organize, support, and believe in the mission.

And to every family and community member who came out today — thank you for spending part of your Saturday with us, asking questions, exploring our programs, connecting with our team, and experiencing the UPrep community firsthand.

Today was about more than an event.

It was about connection.
It was about community.
It was about opportunity.
And it was about showing what is possible when we all pour into young men together.

We are grateful for everyone who helped make today special — and we’re just getting started.

This is UPrep. This is community. This is how we Change the Narrative.

💙💛 Thank you, Rochester!
