ABOUT OUR CHARITY PARTNER

RISE

about-rise-1.png

RISE began in 2014 as an effort to bring equality to sexual assault survivors across the country and around the world.

Since then, we've created the most successful legislative reform movement in U.S. History:

120 laws passed, 1 UN Resolution, 112 Million people's lives impacted by our laws.

The RISE Fashion Show (now in its sixth year) supports survivors and advocates by reclaiming the runway as a place of empowerment, visibility, and celebration.

Turning "what were you wearing?" from a badge of shame into one of honor and pride.
