"Rising Stars Scholars Program has taught me that I can be an inspiration and a leader amongst my peers. My Rising Stars team is my family, we encourage one another but we are also competitive. One area that I have really improved in is my attendance in school. I used to be late all the time but now I am on time. Life as a student athlete is a tough balance but my monthly educational meetings with Rising Stars and the check-up texts and phone calls during the week help support me." - Malachi Philips
" The scholars program allowed our family to prioritize our daughter’s mental health, move her to a positive and enriching community all the while reducing the financial stress and burden. So grateful!"
