WHY RISE?
I joined RISE to make new pals and give back to the community in a meaningful way!

I joined RISE because I want to give back to a community that has given so much to me. I view the RISE program as a way to give back.
Because I wanted to be active in the community with other young actors in Montreal. You can have ideas on your own, but the collective is a powerful catalyst. I love divergent thinking, and cultural and intellectual movements in society. In the world, humans know how to organize themselves around their differences, and I wanted to be part of that. As people discriminated against by social injustice, they/we have just as much a place in influencing what culture becomes and the choices that will be made for a more committed, attentive and resilient society. I didn't know where to start.
To build new skills, be in an environment that allows me to get to know people from the city and do purposeful work related to my field of study.
Amazing platform to work on inclusion, find tools to built better communities, and nice people to spend time with!
