Support Us
To help support Women ARISE, we invite you to make a financial contribution or donate needed goods or services.
Financial Contributions
Women ARISE is challenged to obtain funding for rising operating expenses (e.g., facility maintenance and repair, snow removal and lawn care, utilities, staff payroll, office supplies and insurance, among others), which are not funded by government or most foundations. We rely on corporate support and the generosity of individual donors to sustain these areas.
To make a financial contribution, please mail check/money orders to:
