Our Story in the Spotlight

Since 2016, RISE Tribe has been at the forefront of reshaping, reimagining, and redefining what it means to be Filipinx in Canada. Our work with youth, our community partnerships, and our commitment to creating meaningful opportunities have caught the attention of media outlets, community organizations, and cultural institutions across the country. We're proud to see our mission reflected in the stories told about us—stories that celebrate the resilience, creativity, and potential of Filipinx-Canadian youth.

The media coverage we've received speaks to something larger than RISE Tribe itself. It speaks to a growing movement of young Filipinx-Canadians who are reclaiming their narrative, building their skills, and stepping into leadership roles within their communities. Every article, interview, and feature is a testament to the power of mentorship, the importance of representation, and the impact that intentional community building can have on an entire generation.

Milestones and Recognition

Over the years, RISE Tribe has been recognized for our innovative approach to youth empowerment and our dedication to the Filipinx-Canadian community. From community awards to features in cultural publications, the recognition we've received validates the work we do every single day. But more importantly, it amplifies the voices and achievements of the young people we serve.

Our RISE Academy program has been a particular focus of media interest—and for good reason. By offering paid internship opportunities in the creative and business arts, we're not just providing job experience; we're creating pathways to economic mobility and professional growth for Filipinx-Canadian youth. The stories of our interns and alumni speak volumes about the transformative power of mentorship and opportunity.
