Motivated by the belief that freedom is grace in action, We Raise Foundation partners with Christian nonprofit organizations and emerging leaders working at the intersection of poverty, violence, and inequality. We employ a unique approach to our investing by coupling program funding with a variety of robust value-added services that empower our grantees to grow their solutions to tackle social problems on the scale at which they exist. Our three priority granting areas are:

education, workforce development, and criminal justice.

criminaljustice

By promoting equality for those impacted by the
criminal justice system, we initiate a cycle of hopefulness.

Half of released American prisoners end up going back to jail within three years.
We’re making sure that changes.

FoodRX Program in South Carolina is Feeding the Body and Soul

FoodShare Greenville believes healthy food could be the best medicine for the body and soul. Every other Tuesday, volunteers for the South Carolina nonprofit assemble and distribute fresh produce boxes at drive-by locations in Greenville County. The produce boxes valued at $30 are offered at a discounted price to their neighbors facing food insecurity.

Noticing a correlation between access to healthy foods and chronic illnesses in the community, the organization expanded the FoodShare model in August 2022 when it launched the holistic FoodRx Healthy Eating Prescription Program.

… And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”

Micah 6:8

We work hand in hand with Christian nonprofits to end poverty, violence, and inequality in our communities. Take action today and raise up those in need.
