HER RISE ABOVE
Her Rise Above is a Singapore-based initiative that supports women, we call Risers, from low-income backgrounds in establishing or expanding their home-based businesses. Our dedicated mentors, known as Guides, provide individualised guidance and support over a 10-week program. We also offer funding opportunities to empower these ambitious women to turn their entrepreneurial dreams into reality.
Our mission is to uplift Risers by equipping them with the skills, knowledge, and resources needed for success. By promoting financial independence through home-based businesses, we contribute to the growth of households and communities. We are proud of our impact and remain committed to fostering economic empowerment for women.
