Here at RISE Memphis, we have programming for all ages, including our signature program for working adults, Save Up. Our rising high school participants often ask how they can remain in Goal Card if the program is not offered at their high school. The answer is simple! If a parent qualifies for the Save Up program, grade-age students within the household are automatically enrolled into the Goal Card program and can remain a Goal Card member until the time of high school graduation!
Let's take a moment to celebrate one of our "Save Up babies", Andreya. Andreya's mother, Dorothy, entered RISE's Save Up program in 2018 while Andreya was a Goal Card member at one of our participating schools. When Andreya was promoted to high school, she was able to remain in our program even though Middle College High School was not an official Goal Card site. Andreya has had great success throughout high school and recently graduated from Middle College on Saturday, May 18th. She will attend TSU in the fall to study Nursing! Special congratulations to both Andreya and Dorothy! We are so proud of you and it has been an honor to watch Andreya grow!
