Things I Love: Together Rising

Glennon Doyle is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Untamed, which has sold over two million copies. An activist and “patron saint of female empowerment” (People), Glennon hosts the We Can Do Hard Things Podcast. She is the founder and president of Together Rising, an all-women-led nonprofit organization that has revolutionized grassroots philanthropy – raising over $45 million for women, families, and children in crisis.

Established in 2012, Together Rising helps by running time-limited fundraisers (called Love Flash Mobs) to meet urgent local and global community needs in a matter of hours. Whether it’s pulling children out of the sea outside the refugee camps in Greece, helping abandoned kids on the streets in Indianapolis, establishing the first opioid recovery home for pregnant teens in New Hampshire, building a maternal health wing in Port-au-Prince, providing a single mother access to breast cancer treatment, or keeping a foster family’s heat on in Texas—Together Rising identifies what is urgently required and delivers funding support to the people and organizations who are most effectively addressing that critical need.
