About this organization
Mission
Together We Rise is a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming the way youth navigate through the foster care system in America.
About
Together We Rise has many programs that benefit children in foster care around the United States. Our goal is to make the transition in foster care easier for the children who are in the system. Since children in foster care are typically given 2 trash bags to transport their belongings, we try to give them our sweet cases instead. A Together We Rise sweet case is a bright blue duffel bag stuffed with a teddy bear, a blanket, a hygiene kit, a coloring book, and crayons, participants around the United States will decorate the sweet cases, stuff them, and then donate it back into their communities to benefit children in foster care in their areas. This is our biggest program, and it is growing every year!
