Our Campaign

Our amateur boxing team is on a remarkable journey towards success, but we need your support to make out dreams a reality. We're raising funds to purchase a much-needed bus that will enable us to travel to competitions near and far.

Traveling to competition is a crucial part of our athleres' development, allowing them to gain invaluable experience, exposure, and confidence. Unfortunately, the lack of reliable transportation and cost has been a significant hurdle for us.

By contributing to our compaign, you're not just helping us buy a bus; you're investing in the futures of talented young boxers. Your donation will empower them to pursue their passion, compete at a higher level, and showcase their skills to a wider audience.

Join us in our journey to victory. Your support can make all the difference in the world to these dedicated kids. Donate today and help us take our dreams on the road!

About Us

Rize Inc. is a nonprofit organization founded by world-renowned boxing coaches Calvin Ford and Kenny Ellis. Our organization fights for the underserved youth of Baltimore by providing resources to compete in amateur boxing tournaments, access to life-skills training, and one-on-one mentorship. Our focus is youth development, with programs to build confidence, discipline, and a championship mindset.

For over two decades, Calvin and Kenny have been empowering the next generation of Baltimoreans. Through a city-sponsored boxing center, they lead classes for prospective amateurs and train a growing list of professional fighters. Calvin and Kenny personally fund travel and lodging for tournaments, while playing a very active role outside the gym. They regularly meet with kid's social workers, host food drives, and work with city officials on community development.

Calvin and Kenny's commitment to the youth has produced one of boxing's biggest stars, four-weight world champion Gervonta "Tank" Davis.
