​ Mission Statement
Our mission is to empower the community by fostering a sense of belonging through in-kind sponsorship, volunteerism, and providing workshop topics for community well-being. We aim to increase positive connections that are essential for communities, cultures, and homes to thrive.
​
Our events celebrate differences, address mental health, and build deeper community connections. We believe all women are leaders and provide tools to strengthen mental fitness, regardless of life's challenges. RiseUP offers free workshops and community events. Our foundation relies on local sponsorship, not-for-profit grants, and the Rise Up Coffee Bar with all funds raised going directly to the cause.
