“I think Mr. Gilkey sets a strong example. He tells us his life story and how he has become successful. He doesn’t let his past

define him. He has showed me the real meaning behind ‘being a man’.”
Tom Lai, East, Class of 2021
#WhyWeShowUp “The speakers that we have had tell stories of their lives and the things they have been through. I don’t want to go through some of those things. Rise Up For Youth has challenged me to think about what I want to do in life.”
Wesley Adkins, Southeast, Class of 2021

“The staff can make the connection that I can’t make. It makes my job, as a personal and social counselor, easier. This program has changed the kids and impacted the environment of the schools directly. They are real. They listen. They care. They are there.”
Kim Voth, Wichita Public Schools, East
#WhyWeInvest “Not only do our youth need champions, they deserve them. It is my passion to create a platform for our youth to be heard and included. We create supportive networks on topics of diversity, depression, teen suicide, and academic success. Investing in our youth is investing in our future.”
Vanessa Rials, Rise Up For Youth, Youth Champion
