Ready to make some waves?

Your mission (should you choose to accept it) is to empower future physical therapists.

Are you up for the challenge?

Rizing Tide is always on the hunt for volunteers!

Whether you're interested in speaking, mentoring, or playing to your strengths and contributing in another way, we'd love to tap your expertise! Our scholars are actively looking to connect with trailblazers—so submit a volunteer form today!

Elisha Li, Wash U in St. Louis

"I'm excited to be part of such a strong and diverse community; it's really important. And there's so many mentors and trailblazers in the PT field that are involved in the foundation, so that's really exciting. I'm excited to see where those relationships can take me."

Upcoming Volunteer Opportunities

Supporting DPT students takes a lot of people power—and Rizing Tide's need for volunteers will continue to grow as we help more student DPTs each year. In other words, we'd love all the help you're willing to give! Do any of the following volunteer opportunities fall within your wheelhouse?

(If not, no worries. There are plenty of other ways to contribute to the cause!)
