Let’s RISE grew out of a belief that we all hunger for community, camaraderie and inspiration. The programs are developed by simply talking to folks in the community and realizing what is missing….asking people what could enrich their lives and then making it happen.
Let’s RISE is a way people may connect with each other in meaningful, relevant and valuable ways that make a positive difference for both the individuals who encounter our programs and the community at large. All of our events are open to the general public and we request that you RSVP via our website if you plan to attend or enroll.
