Rogers RISing
About Rogers RISing
Rogers RISing supports families in our Rogers community that need assistance due to
job loss, family emergencies, illnesses or other challenging circumstances. These needs
can be short-term or long-term.
To get involved, email us at RISing@rispto.org. You also can make a cash donation toward Rogers RISing at any time during the year.
The "Market"
We relaunched and expanded our food pantry in 2023. We have a brand-new, bigger space in the main office and always need help stocking it! Please drop off non-perishable foods and personal-care items in the main office. You also can donate online; we will use funds raised to purchase items for the pantry.
