Who we are
Uprospect's mission
Uprospects.com, (Uprospect) is a Canadian Registered Not-for-profit (2018) entity that was created by educators who were former University Student-Athletes. Our mission is to assist any student-athlete in showcasing their academic and athletic achievements to post-secondary schools in North America without barriers, financial or otherwise.
As a Canadian Registered Not-for-profit organization, our primary goal is NOT to generate profit from youth (aged 15 to 25) or their parents and guardians who are seeking to support post-secondary education. Instead, we use our funds to sustain our resources and assist as many young individuals as possible in achieving their educational goals. The core group that are involved in this organization are educators and volunteers (that are also ballers.)
2024
the year of soccer
inaugural showcase Coming This Summer
As with many things, COVID-19 disrupted our plans, especially during our inaugural year. However, in 2024, we are excited to make a grand entrance into the market, highlighting various sports, with a particular emphasis on soccer throughout Canada. Our mission is to spotlight student-athletes from all corners of the country, including those in remote and isolated communities.

we love what we do. Join Us.
Uprospect was founded on the traditional and ancestral territory of many peoples, presently subject to Treaties 6, 7, and 8. Namely: the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika – the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Métis People of Alberta. This includes the Métis Settlements and the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta within the historical Northwest Metis Homeland. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on or are visiting. We strive to pursue the path of reconciliation and devote efforts to contribute to a pathway of friendship through our actions.
