RISE Paralysis Recovery Center

RISE Scholarship Program

During the pandemic, we were able to continue working with clients as hospital therapy was shut down. Consistency and continued exercised-based therapy was imperative to the recovery process for both their physical and mental overall health. Keeping our doors open and providing access to our Forma community encouraged individuals to continue their recovery programs. In addition, a new group of clients found us during the pandemic – individuals recovering from stroke. As we got busier, our team expanded the space, and we are now working with more clients than ever before.

We are very proud of the RISE team and the awesome work they do for all of their clients. Unfortunately, not everyone who needs therapy can afford it. If you are able, we invite you to make a tax-deductible contribution to the Forma Gym 501(c)3 (Forma Kids Foundation) to help sponsor RISE clients who need the financial help to continue their therapy — 100% of the proceeds from this campaign will go to scholarships for RISE clients.

Scholarships are given based primarily on financial need, and are reviewed and awarded on a quarterly basis. Each Rise Scholarship recipient will receive 24 recovery sessions (3-month program) funded through the Forma Kids Foundation. Unfortunately, there are typically more applicants than we have scholarships to give, so not all applicants will be funded and the same individual will not receive more than one scholarship. Applicants who have not selected may be considered in the next funding cycle.
