The Hivery 'We Rise' Scholarship Program

Inspired by Maya Angelou's poem, Still I Rise, and the powerful, brave work of women everywhere, The Hivery launched the 'We Rise' Scholarship Program in 2016 to empower, contribute and support passionate, bold beings who work tirelessly toward equality. 

If you or someone you know is making an impact toward equality through work, kindness, or social good, please stay tuned to learn more about our 2019 scholarship program.
