Celebrating Christmas with On-The-Rise

Wallace & Turner joined On-The-Rise for their annual Christmas party on December 19, 2019. We thank the local Aldi for supplying gifts and being an ongoing support of the organization.

Since 2002, On-The-Rise has served at risk youth throughout Clark County, who have displayed deficiencies in life and social skills, have had academic difficulties, and have displayed behavioral issues. The multi-sensory programs offered at On-The-Rise facilitate extended learning opportunities allowing youth to gain life skills, social skills, and employment skills with the collaboration of many of Springfield’s resources. These programs promote responsibility, compassion, work ethic, and positive self image; but most of all, they give students a chance to succeed.
