"I would like to thank Arise for helping me through some of my darkest times. During my
five-minute testimony, I plan to explain how depression and suicide haunted me, and how my
faith was shaken before finding support through your organization."

"Through my journey, it became painfully clear how real and widespread these confusing
relational patterns (of Narcissism) are — especially when they are rooted in childhood
experiences and carried into adulthood. If left unaddressed, these issues can profoundly impact
a person’s emotional, spiritual, and even physical well-being. This becom
"Through my journey, it became painfully clear how real and widespread these confusing
relational patterns (of Narcissism) are — especially when they are rooted in childhood
experiences and carried into adulthood. If left unaddressed, these issues can profoundly impact
a person’s emotional, spiritual, and even physical well-being. This becomes even more
challenging for individuals who are neurodivergent, have experienced childhood trauma, or have
spent years navigating relationships affected by mental illness, addiction, personality disorders,
or dementia. These complex dynamics can be deeply disorienting and difficult to untangle.
Learning from Donita and my involvement with Arise! has been truly life-changing. I deeply
value the friendships, support, and encouragement I have found among the women involved, as
we walk through some very difficult seasons together with faith and compassion."

"I have truly been inspired by Donita’s unwavering faith and showing up for her tribe even when she can barely show up for herself. God had a bigger purpose for her pain and that’s where Arise! Started."

"Arise helped me heal from abuse I didn’t even realize I had been living through for five
years. Through the group and book club, I connected with women who truly understand
me. Our stories may be different, but our healing is shared. Arise opened the door to the
journey God was calling me to take, and I didn’t have to walk it alone. I’m learning to love
myself and advocate for myself again."
Arise! is a nonprofit with a powerful mission: creating safe, supportive community for women and families rebuilding after abuse and hardship. Every gift helps strengthen that mission and extend hope to those who need it most.
We invite you to learn more about Arise’s impact and commitment to transparency by visiting our GuideStar profile — and, if you feel moved, making a DONATION to support this life-changing work.
