Our vision and mission

Our Story

As We Rise Foundation is a secular, non-profit organization based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania that encompasses the idea of unity. Unity is a fundamental necessity, especially for internationally marginalized groups.  As We Rise Foundation has decided to highlight the struggle of women living in the 21st century. Those in the United States, Pakistan, or anywhere else in the world can connect on a level through the struggles that they face as a whole; a united whole. As We Rise Foundation has found the most feasible way to do this is to provide education, a safe and welcoming environment, and global connections regardless of status or location in Pakistan. Know that once a girl is empowered, she can reach her goals and dreams that she never believed could be possible. That is our goal. For those empowered girls can join women internationally so that our voice is heard. Creating an inclusive and empowering network is how we rise.
