About LVTRise
Born from community-led town halls, LVTRise has grown from a mobile resource center into a permanent hub for stability, opportunity, and connection. Today, we walk alongside families on the Las Vegas Trail, bringing resources directly into the heart of the neighborhood.
Our focus: Safety, Education, Housing, Economic & Workforce Development, and Health & Family Well-Being.
Our vision: A thriving Las Vegas Trail community—rich with opportunity, strong in connection, and sustainable for generations.
Sarah’s Story: Why Your Gift Matters This North Texas Giving Day
When Sarah first walked through the doors of LVTRise, she was carrying more than just the weight of being a single mom—she was carrying the fear of not knowing how she would provide stability for her children. With rent rising, school supplies out of reach, and groceries harder to afford each week, she felt like she was running out of options.
But at LVTRise, Sarah found more than resources—she found community. She connected with programs that helped her build financial stability, received the support her children needed to thrive in school, and discovered a network of people who believed in her family’s future.
Today, Sarah is not just surviving—she is building a new path forward. Her children are engaged and thriving, and she has the tools and confidence to provide for them in ways she once thought were out of reach.
This transformation was possible because of people like you.
When you give to LVTRise on North Texas Giving Day, you are investing in families like Sarah’s. You are fueling stability, creating opportunity, and building hope for an entire community.
Your gift today makes stories like Sarah’s possible.
Join us in showing families across the Las Vegas Trail that they are not alone. Every dollar makes a difference—and together, we can rise.
The mission of LVTRise is to be a community hub providing access to long-term socioeconomic solutions. Our services and programs are designed and influenced by the community to best support their goals. LVTRise works in collaboration with residents in the Las Vegas Trail area.
🏢 Operational Funding
To do this work well, we must keep our core strong. Operational dollars ensure we can:
Staff and train a responsive, compassionate team
Maintain our facility as a safe, welcoming hub
Coordinate services across dozens of community partners
Keep the lights on, the doors open, and the mission moving
🚨 Emergency Assistance Fund
When a crisis hits—like eviction, a job loss, or medical emergency—families need immediate support. This fund allows us to:
Provide rental and utility assistance to prevent homelessness
Distribute food, hygiene, and household items from our on-site pantry
Offer transportation, document recovery, and wraparound care when it matters most
This is the kind of support that kept Sarah and her son housed, fed, and on track for college.
đź“š Cougar Corner & Student Support
We believe stability today creates opportunity tomorrow—and that starts with young people.
Funding for Cougar Corner allows us to:
Support students with tutoring, mentoring, and post-secondary planning
Provide meals, supplies, and enrichment activities
Stay connected to the whole family, addressing barriers before they become roadblocks
Every gift fuels the foundation that helps families rise—not just for a day, but for a lifetime.
