Why Rising Violet Rising Violet started as a gathering place for the stories of “ordinary” women. At Rising Violet, we believe stories are powerful. They bring us understanding, strength, and comfort, simply by connecting us to one another.
As we collected stories, we began to feel a greater sense of purpose, and a greater responsibility to those women who are brave enough to share their story. We decided we wanted to do more.
Many women feel cultural expectations and pressure to rely entirely upon their partners for financial security, but due to death, divorce, and other circumstances, later find they are unable to provide for themselves or their family.
Rising Violet empowers women in their financial journey. By providing one-time gifts of $1000, we remove a small financial obstacle in their path while simultaneously helping them feel seen, loved, and supported as they continue on their journey towards financial independence.
They also have a pretty nice disclaimer:
Rising Violent Disclaimer Rising Violet aids and honors women regardless of their age, ethnicity, nationality, race, martial status, political beliefs, religion, or sexual orientation. Although Rising Violet and its board members do not necessarily endorse the opinions and sentiments expressed by the women we interview, we honor each woman’s right to tell and live her own story. Some women may have controversial or challenging viewpoints. We ask our audience to respect each woman and her individuality. Thank you.
