Our Mission

“Matching resources to talent”

The Rise Up Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization devoted to supporting gifted students by investing in and nurturing their talent. Many students in Worcester County Public Schools hove extraordinary potential but lock the mea s to develop their gifts. The goal of the Rise Up Foundation, through o three-pronged approach, is to bring resources to these talents. Rise Up Scholars, students gifted in the arts or academics, will be matched with a sponsor and a mentor in a team-oriented approach to develop a tailored plan to grow the unique gifts of each scholar - artist, poet, mathematician, or scientist. The singular goal of the Foundation is to provide a path for students to "rise up" and achiever their full potential. Changing the trajectory of one life positively impacts generations to come.
