Reflecting on Past Events at CNY RISE Center

At CNY RISE Center, we’ve hosted a variety of impactful events that have brought our community together. From Abraham’s Table and World Interfaith Events fostering dialogue across faiths, to Ramadan Dinners and Eid Celebrations celebrating shared cultural moments, we’ve created spaces for connection and mutual understanding. Our Learn with Neighbors workshops, Cooking Classes, and Weekend Academy for children have provided educational opportunities, while Coffee Nights, Ladies’ Breakfast, and Community Picnics have strengthened social bonds. Our Outreach Programs like the Blanket Drive and Baklava Drive have directly supported those in need, and our Fundraiser Dinners have helped sustain our mission.

We invite you to stay connected through our social media channels for updates on future events. Your donations are vital in helping us continue our work, and we encourage you to contribute to support these important programs. Thank you for being part of our community!
