The strategic advisors behind transformational impact.

PHILANTHROPY • CAPITAL STRATEGY • PUBLIC IMPACT

We partner with foundations, institutions, and civic leaders dedicated to strengthening communities for generations.

Some projects change a neighborhood. Others change a city for a generation.

We've spent nearly two decades helping organizations navigate capital campaigns, philanthropic investment, and public-private funding. Through our partnerships, we've unlocked more than $900 million in private and public support across greenspace, healthcare, historic preservation, education, and community development in North Texas.

ABOUT US

Meet Our Founder

Rise360 founder Heather Stevens has spent nearly two decades at the intersection of philanthropy, capital strategy, and civic impact.

Since founding Rise 360, she's partnered with some of the most ambitious organizations in North Texas, from a $198 million transformation of the Southwestern Medical District to the renovation of the Cotton Bowl and the revitalization of Fair Park.

What keeps her at the table, long after the campaign closes, is the belief that capital is just a tool. The real work is alignment of vision, of people, and of purpose.
