GivingTuesday!!
Consider supporting the R.I.S.E (Responsibility, Integrity, Strength & Empowerment) non-profit. They are providing academic support, mentoring, college guidance, and life-enrichment programs for our youth. Due to rising costs they have cut some of their core services, like college tours and enrichment days.
We invite you to join us at our GivingTuesday online event on December 2, 2025 as we celebrate our youth and the community that supports them.
Every contribution—no matter the amount—helps R.I.S.E open doors and remove barriers.
