Rise Outreach

As a team we have fed the homeless here and in El Salvador, made and distributed blankets to those in need, made care packages for women undergoing cancer treatment, fed a clothed women in crisis, supplied holiday gifts and meals for families who are food-insecure. We even helped put a roof on a house!
