Relationships Inspiring Social Enterprise (rise) is a non-profit social enterprise registered in the USA and Lesotho. rise focuses on economic development through job creation, skills development and entrepreneurship specifically in the built environment by linking aspiring entrepreneurs in vulnerable communities in low-income sub-Saharan African countries to essential resources they don’t otherwise have access to, for their businesses to flourish. Resources provided include business skills, technical and soft skills as well as access to a network of professionals, market access, mentoring and a whole range of business incubation services.
