Rise Academy Surpasses Fundraising Goal during “25K in 2 Days” Campaign

Rise Academy participated in The Amazing Praise in September, joining faith-based nonprofits across the region for 48 hours of giving, celebration, and community impact. The campaign, which encourages joyful generosity through online giving and storytelling, invited supporters to help Rise Academy raise $25,000 in just two days.

The response was extraordinary. Together, the Rise Academy community raised $41,010, surpassing the original goal by more than 60 percent. With the addition of a $25,000 matching gift, the total amount raised reached $66,010.

These funds will directly support the students of Rise Academy—providing access to quality instruction, college and career preparation, and the resources that help each student reach their God-given potential.

“The outpouring of support during The Amazing Praise reminds us how deeply our community believes in our mission,” said Dr. Brittany Lopes, Head of School.
