Anu U-Rising

We are a nonprofit organization committed to uplifting individuals and empowering entire communities—especially communities of color and low- to moderate-income residents. We collaborate with local leaders and residents to amplify voices and boost civic engagement at the local, state, and federal levels.

Our approach is hands-on and heart-centered. We walk alongside individuals who are striving to improve their lives, serving as coaches, mentors, liaisons, and advocates. Whether someone is navigating a health crisis, setting personal goals, or seeking support through life’s transitions, we help them build realistic action plans and connect them to the resources they need to succeed.

Our work includes:

Supporting individuals with health challenges by guiding them through the healthcare system or helping them develop lifestyle management plans.

Hosting intergenerational workshops and events focused on community healing, empowerment, and development.

Creating safe spaces where community voices are heard and solutions are built from the inside out.
