The RISE Collection has a deeply personal beginning for our family. It began with my son, Dwayne.
As the oldest of six children in a single-parent home, Dwayne learned responsibility early and faced challenges that helped shape the man he became.
In his later years, a long and painful battle with serious health problems took an enormous toll on him, physically and emotionally. As the struggle continued with seemingly no end in sight, even his hope for the future was challenged.
His journey inspired RISE — Rise In Spite of Everything, a collection created to encourage others facing life's hardest challenges and remind them that their circumstances do not define their worth, their lives still have purpose, and God's promises remain true.
