Team Right Rise

Together, We Rise for Hope, Rights, and Humanity

At Right Rise Foundation, our strength lies in our people — a diverse team of passionate individuals united by one mission: to defend human dignity and create opportunities for those who’ve been denied them.
From our offices in the UK to the communities we serve across Pakistan and beyond, every member of our team shares the same belief — that compassion can change the world.

“Right Rise Foundation was born from a simple belief — that every person deserves to live with dignity, no matter where they come from or what they’ve faced. Our mission is to transform compassion into action, and action into lasting change.”

With years of humanitarian experience, Gull Hassan leads the organization’s global vision and partnerships, ensuring every project reflects transparency, equality, and integrity.
