The joy we feel has little to do with the circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the focus of our lives
Russel M. Nelson
RISE was founded in 2001 by Padre Luis and Madre Mari.
They saw a need to provide a safe and loving home to children living on the street or in unsafe environments.

M. Mari 1945 - 2020
Since then, RISE has been home to hundreds of children. Some live there for months and others for years. We are grateful for the opportunity to make a positive impact on children and families who have experienced unfortunate circumstances.

Padre Luis

Today RISE operates with a team of 20+ employees and 30 volunteers, providing all of the necessities for the shelter to operate efficiently while keeping child development, safety and health as their top priorities.

CHILDREN ARE THE FUTURE
Make a difference in a child's life!
