Donate a Vehicle to RYSE

RYSE has an immediate need for an outreach vehicle.  Our staff is hard at work, connecting with youth, providing transportation and supplies, conducting home visits and various appointments to help our young people get ahead in life.  A mini-van is preferable, but any donation is welcome.  Your donation is tax deductible! Email info@ryse.flywheelstaging.com.  Mahalo!
