About I’RAISE: I'RAISE Girls & Boys International Corporation, founded in the heart of the North Bronx in 2012, began as a mentoring program for at-risk female youth living in New York City Authority Housing. Under the visionary leadership of CEO Shanequa Moore, the organization quickly expanded its reach and impact. Shanequa, a Bronx native who overcame poverty and significant life challenges, was inspired to give back to her community, creating a resilient organization dedicated to supporting vulnerable children and youth.
History: Incorporated in 2013 and achieving Tax-Exempt Non-Profit status in 2014, I'RAISE has grown into a formidable force for positive change. Initially focused on mentoring, the organization recognized the critical need for mental health support in public schools and strategically pivoted to address this gap.
