RISE to Vote

RISE uses sport as a vehicle for social justice. Through RISE to Vote, we engage athletes, coaches and staff at all levels, educating them on how to vote and why it matters. We equip them with the tools and knowledge to get involved, make a difference and inspire their fans to be civically active.

We offer Voter Registration, Civic Education and Community Engagement Opportunities.
We work with teams, leagues and athletes to leverage the power of sports to deliver a message of civic engagement through digital campaigns, town halls and major sporting events.

We partner with nonpartisan voter registration organizations, as well as state election officials, to provide accurate and effective voter registration sessions for teams, athletes and fans and address the specific needs of a given state.

Taking action can be as simple as sharing your story. Upload a short video to tell us about the importance of voting. What makes you feel compelled to vote? Why is it important to make a voting plan?
