Become a Rise Together Champion
Give the gift of graduation and appreciation.
If your child or student has been served by Rise Together, then please give to the next generation of high school students and college level mentors. Rise Together needs your thanks and support so we can continue to provide thousands of K-12 and college students with direct mentorship that crushes the achievement gap and promotes social accountability.
Inspire the next generation of community leaders and help educators reach all the students they tirelessly strive to serve.
Rise Together supports local school districts by bolstering an educator's ability to serve all 451 students in their caseload. In order to make a lasting impact on school communities, Rise Together asks school districts, individuals and businesses to get directly involved in programming. Be a steward for positive change by employing the pay-it-forward mentality and sponoring programming. Rise Together thrives by securing corporate sponsorships, guest speakers, financial advisors, board members, and new partnerships with high schools and colleges. Allow Rise Together to help your company meet their corporate community service initiatives. We are ready to expand and serve students throughout the nation.
Provide an internship or field placement opportunity.
Often, Rise Together high school students enrolled in STEM Academies and accelerated programs need to complete an internship in order to graduate with honors. Despite earning 4.0+ grades, without family and friends in professional positions, it is often impossible for first-generation, low-income students to secure an internship and meet experiential learning requirements. Similarly, Rise Together college mentors are leaders on campus but often lack the contacts to transition into the workforce upon graduation. Rise Together welcomes your mentorship, internship placement, employment opportunities and time. Please get involved by working in-person or remotely with our students/mentors. Every moment of your time ignites a student's imagination, unlocks their potential and defines their career vision.
