Building Bridges

Social Change Summit 2026

It is with great pleasure that The Rising Foundation (TRF) announces it will be hosting the 2nd Social Change Summit. The first convening in 2022 brought 20+ organizations from TRFs grantee landscape together to hear about the priorities of the foundation and to share their work with other attendees. This convening will be open to the organization staff & volunteers and the public.

The predominant feedback we received from the 1st Summit was gratitude, to see, hear and meet other organizations on the forefront of social innovation. Building upon this success we at TRF believes it is time to reconvene in furtherance of our vision of Cooperating For A Better Tomorrow.

The summit will include an update from TRF and its partnership with Hozho Collective. TRF will offer grantee organizations an opportunity to present their work to the group. Upon completion of the formal presentations, those wishing to network will be afforded the opportunity to socialize in various breakout rooms.
