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.

Community Pantry Farmers Market

We are collecting fresh food for families to enjoy over Thanksgiving break.

Items should be dropped at school on Monday, Nov. 13 by 12 p.m. You also can make a donation online.

A list of requested items is available in English and Spanish. If you have any questions or want to volunteer, please email RISing@rispto.org.

The "Market"

We are excited to be relaunching and expanding our food pantry for the 2023 to 2024 school year. We have a brand-new, bigger space in the main office and 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.
