📣 Exciting Announcement!

At RISE Integrated Sports + Entertainment, our mission is to forge connections between brands and diverse communities through partnerships that are inclusive, sustainable, and powerful.

Today we’re thrilled to unveil our partnership with Speedy Transport for the 5th annual 2024 EvR (Everyone vs. Racism) festival, lighting up Yonge-Dundas Square (soon to be Sankofa Square) on August 24th, 2024!

Created by Speedy Transport as a community building tool, EvR is a vibrant expression of culture and race that invites individuals of all backgrounds to reflect on their role in eradicating societal racism. Through positive messaging conveyed via various art forms, this celebration aims to unite communities, regardless of race, color, or creed. It’s not just an event; it’s a continuation of an important mission and part of a broader vision to extend the EvR program to schools across the GTA.

✨ This year’s event will benefit iDream, a national non-profit organization that empowers BIPOC and traditionally marginalized communities to find and amplify their voice through media. (Learn more about iDream: https://idreamadream.ca/)

We invite synergistic brands, organizations, partners, and allies to join us in creating a space where unity thrives, racism is unequivocally rejected, and diversity is celebrated in all its magnificent richness.

Join us as we weave together the vibrant expression of art and the voices of our wonderfully diverse community to catalyze real and lasting change for a brighter future.
