Rise and Grow

By Susan Smigielski Acker Leave a Comment

There is a new non-profit in town that is ready to help charities and small businesses succeed despite the obstacles of 2020.

Rise and Grow provides marketing grants and strategies to businesses and non-profits that have been adversely affected by crisis such as the pandemic, said Courtney Buzzell Riley, vice president of the organization. She is also president and founder of Proximo Marketing in Yorktown. 

The organization is also supported by PB&J Marcom, headed by Patrick Belcher. 

The goal is to help non-profits and struggling small businesses obtain grants to advance their marketing and communication efforts.

Rise and Grow is about more than providing funding. They also offer marketing, fundraising and structure advice.

“We want to be a teacher and coach to help navigate because, in many ways, everything is different,” Riley said.

Rise and Grow wants to change the way business is done for start-ups, small businesses, nonprofits and struggling companies, Riley said.
