Why Your Participation Matters
Hurricane Helene left countless families and children in our area displaced or struggling with significant challenges. At RISE Augusta, we’re stepping up to help. The funds raised from this event will support:
Literacy Tutoring: Of the 650 plus students in our tutoring programs, 100% of them started two-three grades below grade level! Did you know that over 85% of students in the Juvenile Court System struggle to read?
Your support helps us provide tutoring and remediation so these kids can succeed in school and life!
Basic Needs Assistance: Many students can’t focus in class because of unmet basic needs. With your help, we can ensure they have the support they need to thrive.
Event Highlights
Date: Monday, May 19, 2025
Location: West Lake Golf Club – known for its beautiful course and world-class amenities

Celebrate the Spirit of Christmas and Support a Worthy Cause
Celebrate the Spirit of Christmas and Support a Worthy Cause!
Join Us This Christmas Eve for a celebration of the “Reason Behind the Season” through music, hope, and fellowship.
Dear Friends,
Christmas is a season of joy, reflection, and togetherness—a time to pause and cherish the blessings we share. For many, it’s no longer about the hustle and bustle but about celebrating grace, love, and the miracle of the birth of a child who offers us all salvation and hope.
At RISE Augusta, we are overjoyed to announce that this year we have been selected as a beneficiary of Concerts With A Cause, a cherished Christmas tradition hosted by St. John United Methodist Church in downtown Augusta. This incredible concert series collects love offerings to benefit local organizations making a difference in the community, and this Christmas Eve, RISE Augusta is honored to be a part of this beautiful tradition.
We warmly invite you to join us for an unforgettable evening of God’s Love, music, community, and the spirit of giving.
Concert With A Cause
Christmas Eve, 10:30 PM
St. John United Methodist Church
736 Greene Street
Augusta, GA 30901
This is your chance to create a meaningful Christmas memory with your loved ones while supporting RISE Augusta and the children we serve. Your presence and generosity will help us to continue providing literacy remediation, basic needs and other vital resources to at-risk youth in our community.
Let’s come together in the spirit of Christmas, reflect on its profound meaning, and share hope and joy with those who need it most.
We can’t wait to see you there!
