2022 Big Day of Giving is TOMORROW!

2022 Big Day of Giving is TOMORROW!

When “life” takes a turn for our students – a food, housing, transportation, or medical emergency – we are there for them.  Project REACH is a special fund that carries our RYHF Family members through unanticipated times of challenge and sets them solidly back on track to pursue a life of health, stability, and contribution.  

Our goal for Big Day of Giving 2022:  $10,000 to replenish our REACH account to meet these needs in the months ahead.  This year EVERY dollar raised up to $10,000 will be matched 1:1.  Please give generously!

When Raise Your Hand Foundation welcomes a new student to our roster, we do everything we can to support their well-being and academic journey.  These young men and women are not just scholarship recipients to us, they are RYHF Family.  Most scholarship programs are unforgiving and drop students when grades fall below a stated GPA.  When one of our students drops below a 3.0, we begin asking questions.  And the answer is often found in a crisis situation that has negatively impacted the student – displacement, lack of transportation, hunger, or health issues.  

Project REACH is a special fund that carries our RYHF Family members through such unanticipated times of challenge and sets them solidly back on track to pursue a life of health, stability, and contribution.  

Our goal for Big Day of Giving 2022:  $10,000 to replenish our REACH account to meet these needs in the months ahead.  This year EVERY dollar raised up to $10,000 will be matched 1:1.  Please give generously!

Caring for their Communities!

Caring for their Communities!

RYHF family members, Miatta and Shilley joyfully care for the children in their community.  Johnetta’s smile says it all as she cares for patients at City Medical Lab Clinic (even her shirt is “smiling”)!

Light Academy Model School, Liberia

Pastors Tailey and Agnes Garley have a lot to smile about these days. 

Their vision for a school that brings laughter, love, and learning to some of Liberia’s poorest children and orphans – Light Academy Model School, Liberia – has been a reality for a few years now. 

Their vision for a NEW, beautifully constructed school building is getting closer to completion every day!  Follow Light Academy on Facebook to see the wonderful things Tailey and Agnes, with YOUR help, have been able to accomplish!

On our part … RYHF trains Light Academy teachers and staff.  And we smile about a special partnership that offers HOPE to so many.
