Ring In Inclusivity with Doorbells
Our intention isn't litigious. We ask local business and public venues to consider adding an inexpensive, easy to install wireless doorbell to the exterior of their location by a door, so that customers with disabilities that can not open the door and enter independently may request assistance in an empowering way.

Jonathan and Steven's Story of Friendship & Leadership
RISE As One's mission is to enhance the quality of life of disabled people's access to public and private businesses and other buildings and to raise public awareness of disabled citizens' special needs. Our mission is not to be litigious, though this is a common misconception. I want to help enhance the quality of life for my friends and disabled people's access to public and private businesses, government buildings, entertainment venues, and hospitality buildings by sharing our stories. We hope to raise public awareness of disabled citizens' special needs, such as, cerebral palsy. We want to be able to experience life the way other people do.
Why do we RISE As One?
RISE As One 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and a grassroots movement created to foster inclusion and access for people with limited mobility and speech to local businesses and public venues.

Founding Story
"I started RISE because I wanted to help people who have disabilities like mine be able to participate more in their community," founder Jonathan.
Inspired by Jonathan's frustration and inability to be a patron of restaurants, retail stores, and non-ADA accessible commercial properties throughout Broward County and beyond.
This cause is important because it helps open real doors to opportunities like shopping independently.
Small quality of life enhancements increase our ability for inclusiveness and community. It makes a huge difference in the lives of people with mobility challenges. Help us feel heard and included in our communities - please consider sharing our stories with your sphere of influence, friends, family, and community.
"I hope that I continue to receive support from businesses like yours so I can also make a difference one door at a time," Jonathan.
