The Rising Foundation Trust

The Rising Foundation is driven by the concept of "Unlocking Your Potential". More than a catch phrase, we endeavour to see this become a reality in the lives of every young person we work with. We have seen first-hand how our sustained programme of intervention and support achieves this goal. We partner with families, Intermediate and High Schools to unlock the potential of referred adolescents who display leadership qualities despite coping with challenging personal circumstances. We provide a five to seven year programme packed with insights, values and principles, emotional and moral support, role models and opportunities to practice what they have learned through challenging and creative activities that would otherwise be out of their reach. We ease their transition from Intermediate to High School and the transition from High School to Tertiary Education, Trades or the Workforce.
