RSM hasn't added a story.
Humanity Rising is a student-led community-supported movement to create a better world through service. We inspire, empower and reward students for making a difference in their communities.
Our theme is “What Cause Inspires You?” Our cause areas include bullying, hunger, homelessness, veterans, people with disabilities, the elderly, youth, education, health care, animal welfare and the environment.
We help students find their service passion for making a difference, provide meaningful content to help build their leadership skills, give them a platform to share their voice to inspire their peers and recognize and reward outstanding service with scholarships.
In 2018, nearly 2,400 RSM employees and clients participated in 56 volunteer events across the country. More than 57 charities benefited, including Ronald McDonald House,schools, food banks and children's hospitals. Employees and clients helped prepare a hurricane-ravaged school for the new school year, weeded gardens at a children’s camp, packed backpacks with school supplies, painted and cleaned a number of schools, and participated in many other activities across the country to help various communities where RSM has offices.
RSM offices that select local charities aligned with the RSM US Foundation mission are able to enhance their gifts of service with donations from the RSM US Foundation’s Dollars for Doers program. In 2017, Dollars for Doers provided matching grants totaling $100,000 for 73 qualifying charitable organizations.
Hanel Yu helps feed disadvantaged children
All my life, I heard about hunger, thought about hunger, and discussed about hunger, but I never had a hand in the issue. Such serious issues seemed to be occurring far away lands. However, after observing a flyer in my school’s announcement board, I decided to fight hunger in my city and soon joined Kids Food Basket, a local non-profit organization that seeks to eliminate hunger in Grand Rapids. They operate by packing nutrition-filled lunches for poverty-stricken children in public schools in order to sustain their developing brains. It was there that I learned that hunger and poverty was all around me, not beyond me, which lead me to vow to raise as much awareness and finances for these hungry children as possible. As a group, we raised approximately 45,000 dollars this year and I definitely didn’t regret the hard work. This challenge helped me to become aware that even high schoolers like me can be a small part in helping a society change for the benefit of a greater future.
