Rooted in resilience. Rising together.
She Rises Foundation was founded to help women, children, and families move from crisis to stability — and from stability to lasting independence. What started as one woman's mission has grown into a community-powered movement.
To empower women and families through housing, education, workforce development, and community support — restoring hope and building lasting stability.
A future where every woman has the resources and opportunity to rise, thrive, and lead her family toward a brighter life.
Compassion, dignity, resilience, community, and accountability guide everything we do.
She Rises Foundation was founded by Priscille Manlan, whose personal journey and years of hands-on experience in caregiving and community work inspired a mission to help other women rise above hardship.
Her belief: every woman deserves a real chance to rebuild — not just a handout, but a hand up.
