The Rising Scholars Fund

Help a Student Rise

The Rising Scholars Fund pools gifts from local businesses, service clubs, and neighbours so cost never decides which kids get help.

Are you a parent looking for a subsidized spot? The program is still being built. Get in touch and we'll keep you posted.

For Funders

Simple and Honest

  1. Give Any Amount

    E-transfer to info@risealberni.org, or a cheque payable to RISE Alberni. Businesses and service clubs get a sponsorship invoice for their books.

  2. We Direct the Fund

    Your gift joins one shared fund. We put it behind the families who need it most, so no student loses their tutor partway through.

  3. You See the Impact

    Each school year, you get a plain one-page update: the sessions your gift covered, the students it reached, and where the fund stands.

The Fine Print, Up Front

RISE Alberni is a grassroots nonprofit, not a registered charity, so we can't issue tax receipts. What we can offer is a sponsorship invoice for your books, a straight answer to every question, and proof each school year that your money did what we said it would.
