WHO WE ARE
OUR MEMBERS
Rise & Shine was started as a home for those who want to harness their hope, anger, sadness and fear and use it to build change. As individuals engage, learn, grow, change and lead, so does Tennessee.
“We are volunteers. We serve with energy and love. We are committed to ensuring that every Tennessee resident can enjoy a vibrant life in a state that protects their communities.”
— Maryam Abolfazli
We know that we Tennesseans have untapped creativity, passion and love to safeguard the wellbeing of everyone, especially our youth.
When the civic process is complicated, it’s hard to engage. Rise makes it easy to get involved.
We are here to unleash that creativity.
