Help Build Young Leaders in Greater Cincinnati.

The Numbers Tell the Story.

“Rising Leaders gave me the confidence and skills to land my first leadership role. Now, I’m paying it forward in my community.”
Real Stories. Real Change.
“Before this program, I didn’t know where to start. Now, I have the tools and network to make my goals a reality.”
A Ripple Effect Across Cincinnati.
When one young adult succeeds, entire families and communities are affected and in turn, gain more potential to thrive. Rising Leaders alumni are creating new opportunities, mentoring others, and driving transformation in their communities.
Your generosity fuels our mission to build young leaders from the city for the city—leaders who multiply hope and thus transform their communities. Through leadership training, coaching, and ongoing support, we empower young adults to take their next bold step. Together, we’re investing in the next generation of changemakers right here in Cincinnati.
