Dear Friends,

Just days ago our team returned from Ghana after one of the most impactful mission trips in the history of the Hayah R.I.S.S.E. Foundation.

Because of your generosity…

• Children received school supplies.
• Young girls received beautiful dresses.
• Communities received medical care.
• Students learned about leadership, health, and Christian character.
• Schools received resources that will continue serving children for years to come.

But the greatest gift wasn’t what we delivered.

It was the hope we witnessed.

The joy.

The relationships.

The smiles.

Every one of those smiles tells a story.

On October 24, we’d love to share those stories with you.

You’re invited to join us for the RISSE Impact 2026 Gala, an elegant evening featuring:

• Plated dinner
• Live Music from Fraser 5
• Live Music from Olivia Cooper & Higher Ministry
• Exclusive mission videos
• Inspiring stories
• Vision for the future

This evening is more than a fundraiser.

It is a celebration of what God has done through faithful partners like you—and an invitation to help shape what comes next.

Reserve your seat today.

We hope to celebrate with you.

With gratitude,

Michael M. Smith

Founder & President

Hayah R.I.S.S.E. Foundation
