Charleston RISE has been in the trenches fighting for the lives of students who have been underserved for years by our educational system. We’ve built a network of reform advocates, stood up for reform initiatives and supported reform-minded board members. Please consider supporting our work!

Charleston RISE is a grassroots movement that has one goal: empower local parents to demand an excellent education for all Charleston students. Charleston RISE does this by mobilizing Charleston County parents who have a clear passion for improving our education system through a 16-week Parent Empowerment program. Parents graduate with the knowledge, tools and network necessary to drive real and lasting change for all children.
