“It’s not hard work.
It’s heart work.”
SpeakUPZee, LLC Community was created with the goal to combat the many societal issues our cities, states, overall country, and the world deal with on a daily basis. The only difference, we did not want to be tied down to the many restraints that come with non-profit, but some of our greatest partnerships are formed with the great non-profits.
SpeakUPZee Community creates a number of unique community events, initiatives, programs, and platforms to fight the most tenacious social issues we deal with today. Issues such as homelessness, youth mentorship and the lack thereof, and mental health. Within the last 5-6 years, SpeakUPZee has been able to serve close to 15,000 men and women and children with our programs and initiatives such as Operation: Save Our City, SpeakUPSpeakOUT Youth Mentoring, Zee’s Detailing, Warming UP the Rock Homeless Initiative, and so many more.

Youth Mentoring Program
SpeakUPSpeakOUT is our youth mentoring program that has been established since the year 2016 taking students from all walks of life and sharpening their life and leadership skills through the power of entrepreneurship and various forms of art such as poetry, speaking, creative writing, and more.
Zee’s Detailing
Zee’s Detailing is one of the newly developed apprenticeship programs where we hire young men and women primarily of color and ensure they have employment, resources, and also learn valuable life skills and strengthen their entrepreneurship spirit. The goal here is to help our clients’ vehicle reach their full potential while also surrounding our youth with caring mentors to ensure they do the same.
During COVID-19, our community team has served the less fortunate, men, women, and children for 20+ weeks to ensure no one goes without resources during them unsure times.
Our program and Initiatives.
Operation Save Our City
Operation Save Our City: this is one of our more recent initiatives in partnership with Geyer Springs United Methodist Church here in our hometown of Little Rock, Arkansas. This a mobile contactless food pantry where we serve on average 200+ plus families each week to ensure no family or person goes hungry or without especially during these unsure times.
Warming Up The Rock
Warming Up the Rock: this is one of the more seasoned community initiatives that we have hosted for each of the last 5 years. This initiative is designed for us to provide the less fortunate men, women, and children of our community with the necessary resources and food during the harsh winter month to simply survive. However, in this upcoming sixth year, the vision is much bigger to not only help our community but sustain them. This program in the near future will create more jobs, opportunities, eliminate homelessness, and truly save our city.
Let’s Make a Difference.
Over the past few years here SpeakUPZee has impacted thousands of young children, men, and women in our community and with your help we’re hoping to expand to reach and serve more! We simply can’t do it without you - You’re support in volunteering or simply donating will make a lasting impact on our community.
