Mahalo To Dana Anderson

Please join us as we mahalo long-time board member Dana Anderson as she steps down from her role at the end of this year. We will greatly miss Dana, who was essential to the creation of RYSE back in 2014 and helped to set up our organization for success. She also helped set up our shelter sites and leads the monthly hot meals project provided to RYSE from The Parish of St. Clement Church that continues today.
Dana has shown a lifelong commitment to serving her community in the areas of homeless youth, substance abuse recovery, and mental health. Dana is Board Vice President of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Hawaii Chapter and is deeply involved with The Parish of St. Clement Church, where she is a vestry member and does community outreach. We are proud to have Dana with us since the beginning and wish her the best as she moves forward.
Mahalo nui e Dana for your everlasting support to end youth homelessness!
