Rise & Thrive to Hold Fundraiser Launch Event

Rise And Thrive Inc., an after-school mentorship program for young girls in the Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. metro area, will be hosting a fundraising event on Sunday, Sept. 29, 2019 from 4 - 7 p.m. The event will take place at the Nouvelle Clubhouse, 7911 Westpark Drive, Tysons Corner.

Founded by Ashley Koranteng, 22, and Ashley Lucas, 22, both graduates of George Mason University, Rise & Thrive is a benefit organization committed to empowering young ladies to thrive in the world, on the foundation of their values and worth. Rise & Thrive seeks to protect the well-being of girls by educating them on their self-proclaimed 9 elements: self-love, etiquette, healthy lifestyles, professional development, finances, academic enrichment, social media, healthy relationships, and safety. These elements prove to be fundamental foundations for bright women and leaders. By working directly with schools and parents to identify the individual steps young women must navigate, Rise & Thrive empowers young girls to become the woman they desire to be through its mentorship and leadership initiatives.

Rise & Thrive invites you to attend the Sept. 29 fundraising event, which will celebrate the launch of Rise and Thrive Inc. and serve as a networking opportunity for young professionals, as well as, a fun event for families. Come learn more about Rise & Thrive, it’s mission, and it’s many opportunities for young ladies in the community. Featuring music, food, drinks, and casual conversation, dress attire for the event is casual. Free parking will be locally available.
