Rising Roses Foundation is a dynamic and compassionate organization dedicated to empowering and supporting teens in foster care, particularly in underserved communities.
Since 2016, we have been a pillar in the community, providing teens with invaluable resources through an enriched, activity-based program taught by experts in various industries, gives them the opportunity to excel in life.
We are proud to have made a positive impact in the lives of young people over the years, and we are equally proud to continue making a positive impact in the years to come.
Motivated by a strong desire to make a positive impact on the world, I founded the Rising Roses Foundation using my own resources. As we progressed, I learned the immense value of community engagement and in-kind donations. By forging partnerships and receiving support from others, we were able to better serve our mentees while minimizing financial strain.
Through our work, we have cultivated relationships with professionals who share our vision and have become invaluable mentors to the young women we serve. With their guidance and expertise, we are empowering our mentees to achieve financial literacy, develop leadership skills, nurture emotional well-being, and pursue fulfilling careers.
As the founder of Rising Roses Foundation, I thank everyone who has supported me, and I look forward to future collaborations to ensure that teens facing adversity have the opportunity to thrive.
