Raise a glass, awareness, and funding for civic education in Arkansas.
A Note from Our Leadership
We’re not building a moment. We’re building a movement. And we’d love for you to be part of it.
Join us at Rise Up!, a community celebration and fundraiser for Arkansas Civic Action Network (ArkCAN). We’ll gather at the historic Villa Marre in Downtown Little Rock for wine, appetizers, and meaningful conversation about how we’re empowering everyday Arkansans—especially young people—to understand and shape the democratic process.

Why This Matters ArkCAN is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization rooted in a simple idea: everyone deserves the tools and confidence to participate in civic life. We make democracy more accessible by offering:
- Hands-on civic workshops
- Tools for tracking legislation
- Trainings for first-time voters
- Opportunities for people of all ages to take meaningful action
Our Next Chapter: At Rise Up!, we’ll share what’s ahead:
- Summer internships that train young Arkansans to organize, advocate, and lead
- ENGAGE, a new program that allows high school students to earn graduation credit by designing and leading real civic service projects
This is bold, necessary, hopeful work—and it doesn’t happen without support from people like you.
