RISE 2021 Outstanding Achievement Awards
Heart of RISE 2021 Hannah Baksa - First year of water sports made RISE Summer 2021 complete. Regular attendance with her mother Greta. Became the heart and soul of our water sports program. It was always going to be an awesome day when she was in attendance. Staff and Volunteer FAVORITE.
Hannah written by her mother, Greta: “It may sound dramatic but finding RISE and being able to participate regularly has been life changing and this award will always be a reminder of new beginnings and friendships. RISE allows Hannah to participate in activities that challenge her, give her the thrill she craves, and such joy. We've seen her confidence and assertiveness grow. At the beginning of the summer, she was tentative and sometimes even scared. By the end of the summer, she went straight to the ski or tube and was downright "bossy" in directing anyone around to get her ready to go or even trying to do her own ski straps. As a family, we have met the most incredible people through RISE and are so grateful and blessed to know each one of you. This was a summer to remember.”
the joy hannah brings to our programs make us whole.
RISE is truly blessed by the continued support of the Classic Chevrolet Family and Tom & Susan Durant.
As we pause on this Thanksgiving Day and count our blessings, we want to express to you, Team RISE, our team, and the gratitude we have for you. Thank you for all that you have given and contributed to making this a successful year. Our warmest wishes to you and your family on Thanksgiving. Blessed to Service.
Happy Thanksgiving! 🙂
