What is RiseUpWA?

RiseUpWA is a nonprofit organization formed February 2020. Our mission is to inform, recruit, train and equip advocates. 


The Strike for School Choice Rally, on Sept. 7th will kick off the next big push! 


RiseUpWa is assisting the efforts for the School Choice BILL that will be brought to committee very soon. We are calling it the "Follow the Backpack Bill".


Why RiseUpWA?


RiseUpWA is focusing on School Choice.

Please support us at all events. NUMBERS MATTER! Bring your whole family. 


RiseUpWa lobbied a successful bill just after the first year of its founding. It has also hosted several rallies and recruited hundreds of new advocates. We are geared up and ready to move forward, fighting for Parental Rights and School Choice!


Given the current education crisis, we have pivoted to educate and recruit people to lobby legislation that will help restore individual and parental rights.


How to get involved with RiseUpWA?


Go to RiseUpWA.org and sign up to join the effort. If you do not have time, then please consider making a donation or purchasing  some cool merch to push out our messaging.


Thank you ~ BE the change you wish to see,

Michelle Darnell and the RiseUpWA Team
