Rogers RISing
The Rogers Community Action Center
Holiday Gift Card Drive
Many of our families struggle to put food on their tables. We collect donations toward grocery gift cards throughout the year and especially during the holidays and school breaks. You can donate here or contact Kristin Angelov at RISing@rispto.org with any questions.
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.
Our food pantry is temporarily closed due to the pandemic, but you may donate online toward
gift cards for our needy families.
Many of our programs are on hold this year, but typically we hold many events throughout the year, including:
August: School-supply drive
September: Recycled uniform drive
October: Costume drive
November to March: Winter clothing drive
November: Thanksgiving meal “wish lists”
December: Giving tree and holiday meal “wish lists”
February: Winter break food drive
March/April: Holiday/spring break meal “wish lists”
June: School-supply drive for next school year
If you would like to donate to the food pantry or one of our other programs, please place it in the plastic tote box marked “Rogers RISing” outside the office. Students often take food home with them, so please provide bagged and boxed (versus canned) items whenever possible. If would like to donate perishable items, gifts cards or cash, please contact us.
If you would like to volunteer with Rogers RISing or have questions, please contact Kristin Angelov at rising@rispto.org or Mirza Martinez-Pinto at mmartinezpinto@rispto.org.
