ABOUT RISEUP MALAWI
RiseUp is a small but mighty non-profit working in one of the most remote and impoverished corners of the world: rural Malawi. We aim to achieve real social change through carefully designed educational initiatives that empower young individuals in Malawi to recognize and make use of their God given skills and abilities. We believe educational investment is critical to sustainable development and work closely with village elders, government officials, moms, dads, teachers and youth to listen to their real needs. This bottom up approach allows the voices of our community to be prioritized as they seek out unique solutions to unique problems. In all of our programs we encourage ownership and agency in an effort to dismantle the "dependency syndrome" that so many aid organizations have reinforced for decades through handouts.

Mission Statement
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit providing educational support to orphaned and at-risk children in Mangochi, Malawi. Every year the people of Malawi face life-threatening diseases in the form of malaria & HIV/AIDS, leaving thousands of children orphaned or struggling to pay for daily needs & education. Our goal is to provide the educational and livelihood support necessary for these children to have a future of self-reliance and hope.
Description
RiseUp Malawi currently serves over 300 children in our free afterschool program, supports 20 secondary school (highschool) students with full scholarship, and has provided free farming training for over 60 local farmers. We also have a music program where children can explore difficult subjects like HIV and child marriage awareness through song and dance, and a monthly girls empowerment program and annual retreat. Our goal is provide relief from extreme poverty and hunger through education initiatives that empower children and their families to lift themselves up from within. We do not give handouts, but believe education is the key to liberating our community from generational cycles of economic hardship.
