RiseUp and Volunteer!
Volunteer Opportunities
It takes a village-JOIN OURS! Let’s rise together and create a brighter future for those affected by domestic and sexual violence. Rise House volunteers support our mission in 3 ways.
Shelter Support: Coordinate shelter events, i.e., resident holiday parties, holiday decorating, staff recognition, residents' birthdays, etc. Additional opportunities are to provide childcare, emotional support, assistance with safety planning, community outreach, and teaching skills to residents.
Event Support: Help share the mission, expand our reach, and strengthen the long-term sustainability of Rise House. You may help with one-time events or ongoing fundraisers throughout the year.
Virtual Ambassador: sharing events, educational content. and promoting donations during campaigns.

Purchase Broken China Jewelry to help us spread the promise of hope all year long!
The story of our Broken China jewelry mirrors the path Rise residents have walked, from feeling broken and used to being renewed, independent, and confident.
All of our Broken China jewelry is handmade by volunteers, that means 100% of proceeds will be used to help victims of domestic violence at Rise.
Why You’ll Love the Broken China Jewelry
You will light up each time someone asks, “Where did you find such a unique necklace?” and you tell them the Broken China story.
You’ll be wearing a daily reminder of the mission and promise of hope at Rise.
You will receive special updates and stories from Rise and our residents.
Each piece is unique, no two pieces are ever the same!
Because each piece is unique, they make great gifts for family and friends!
100% of proceeds benefit Rise, thanks to our amazing Broken China volunteers.
The Story of How Broken China Jewelry Began in 2007
Rise supporters began Broken China Jewelry, a line of beautiful pendants handcrafted from broken plates, in 2007. What began as a goal to sell 200 pieces has become one of our largest fundraisers.
Many major projects have been completed with funding from Broken China Jewelry, including replacing the shelter roof and purchasing a vehicle to transport shelter residents!
If you would like more information about the jewelry project, please get in touch with Jewelry Project Coordinator, Kim Wilson, at 208-881-1645.
