About Rise In Light

The Rise In Light Mission.

Rise in Light is a social impact initiative that bridges the worlds of art, innovation, and compassion. We connect artists, creatives and innovators with the campaign efforts to provide education, creative empowerment, and wellness resources to underserved youth in Africa and its Diaspora. As a facet of Melanin Unscripted Impact, all Rise In Light projects center on equitable opportunities for Black youths.

What we believe
