Our commitment
Rise & Give
Rise & Give is the Rise & Fore fund. Every donation gifts a funded place to a woman in transitional housing support, or to a child who cannot afford extracurricular activities.
Access to healing and community should never be a question of money. The community is built on one contract: rise, and pay it forward.
Women in Transition
Funded places for women rebuilding their lives from the ground up, including women in transitional housing support. Healing is a necessity, not a privilege, and the women who need a room the most are usually the ones who can least afford one.
Children Without Access
Funded places for children who cannot afford to take part in extracurricular activities. Every child deserves the chance to discover what they love and who they are. No child is turned away.
Give
Gift a funded place
One donation puts one woman or one child in a room they could not otherwise be in. You will not be told who, and they will not be told who you are, because that is not what this is for.

How it works
Questions about Rise & Give
Ask. Fill in the request form on this page and Rachel replies personally. There is no means testing, no proof to supply and no panel deciding whether you deserve it. Rise & Give funds places for women in transitional housing support and for children who cannot afford extracurricular activities. No child is turned away.
Two groups. Women in transitional housing support or otherwise rebuilding from the ground up, and children who cannot afford to take part in extracurricular activities. If you are not sure whether that is you, ask anyway. The worst outcome is a kind reply.
Every donation funds a place at a Rise & Fore experience, membership or event for someone who could not otherwise be in the room. [[TBC: percentage of donation allocated to places versus administration, and reporting cadence]]
[[TBC: charitable status. Rise & Give is currently described as a fund operated by Rise and Fore Ltd. Confirm registered charity status or CIC status before launch, because this materially changes what the page is allowed to claim.]]
No. Funded places are not announced, marked or mentioned in the room. You arrive exactly as everyone else arrives, because a gift that costs you your dignity is not a gift.
