The RHPS Event

The Rocky Horror Picture Show (RHPS) is the center of the RISE signature fundraising event because of the positive impact it had (and continues to have) on individuals who have been made to feel alien, outside, or even outcast from society. While there is language used in RHPS that is no longer acceptable today, RHPS embodies RISE’s core value of accepting the inherent value and uniqueness of each individual we serve.
