RISE was founded in 2001 and has been home to hundreds of children since then.
The professional, dedicated staff and volunteers provide love, shelter, food and education for each child who would, otherwise, be living on the streets.
Children and infants come to RISE from local social services agencies, DIF (the Mexican social services department), and families experiencing a crisis at home.
RISE ensures that each girl and boy receives a good academic and spiritual education.
RISE can provide a home for as many as 50 children.
Most operating funds come from donations by Americans and Canadians. DIF pays for emergency medical care.The president is Padre Luis Alcarez. They are supported by a board of directors and seven committees. Donate
