OUR PROGRAMS
Rise league
basketball program
The basketball division of our non profits consists of leagues and camps. Our main high school focused league takes place during the fall and we’re working on having a 3rd-8th focused league during the winter. Our camps take place all year long and we collaborate with other basketball organizations in Central Florida. Our aspiration is to give the youth of Central Florida to develop their skills and showcase their talent on the big stage. We pride ourselves in having a players first atmosphere. One that makes players never want to leave the gym because of the amazing environment.
Rise Business
scholarship program
The business program is our way to expose the youth of Central Florida to the multitudes of different avenues to be successful. In different ways we showcase the importance of being knowledgeable in financial literacy, networking, entrepreneurship, media, and career choice. Guest speakers from different industries speak and build relationships with our program members. Program members also have the opportunity to win a scholarship at the end of our program. We encourage our basketball program members to be in the business program, but they don’t have to be. We accept youth that aren’t in the basketball program as well.
“To provide young people with the skills, knowledge, and resources they need to succeed in business and sports"
