WHAT WE DO

We exist to empower communities through wholistic sustainable development meeting physical, emotional, and spiritual needs

On the west coast of Africa, Hope Rising Together (formerly Let Them LOL) works to bring clean water, education, healthcare, and much more community development through empowering strategies in this incredible country, eager to see their communities thrive.

In a rustbelt city in upstate NY, Hope Rising Together is invested in renewal and restoration through volunteering, giving opportunities, and community initiatives. We’re seeking to empower a better future for all.

 

We are a grassroots movement of everyday, hardworking people choosing to stand with each other; a community here in Buffalo, NY with a community there in Sierra Leone, West Africa.
