New initiative "Rise East" to improve East Oakland
Oakland Thrive is working to raise $50 million in local funding, which rise East organizers say will be matched by national philanthropic organization, bloom Meridian Partners. We're also excited for the transformation of Rise East. It's not just going to be a set of words. It's going to mean something.
It's going to be an emblem of hope. —Haziq Madyoun, Kron 4 News.
