Rick comes from a fundraising background in the political arena, where he found success was not as rewarding as he had hoped. He turned his sights to helping non-profit programs where he watched the funds raised do incredible work. Rick has raised millions for programs throughout the midwest including Shriners Hospitals. However, he decided to turn his attention to schools and programs when his wife Cherise needed additional funding for her High School Volleyball program. In 2016, he become an independent school fundraiser. Rick truly enjoys helping the schools and watching programs develop from the funds they have raised together. (He likes to say the $17,000 fundraising campaign helped his wife's team win State Championships in 2017 and 2018!) Whether it is academia, sports or clubs in a school environment, you can raise the funds needed. Each year our goal has been to give back more money than the year before, and every year with your help, programs have exceeded their goals. We are working to raise you and your programs over $2.5 million in a single year.

If you are a teacher, coach, principal, PTA, or director looking to earn $5000+ and are willing to follow the program, together we can make that happen! Contact me and let’s Vertical Raise!
