Under the agreement, Razor Sharp Digital will lead comprehensive marketing and brand awareness efforts for Rise Up TR, including digital strategy, purpose-driven storytelling, website optimization, social media campaigns, SEO, and community engagement. The partnership aims to increase visibility, attract new supporters and volunteers, and cultivate sustainable partnerships that produce measurable community impact.
“This partnership isn’t about marketing — it’s about mission,” said Ivan Temelkov, Founder and Chief Human Officer of Razor Sharp Digital. “At Razor Sharp, we use our platform and experience to help organizations that are changing lives. Rise Up Transitional Resources provides essential support for adults rebuilding after addiction, incarceration, or homelessness, and our role is to help those stories reach the right audiences so more people can get involved.”
Rise Up Transitional Resources provides sober, restorative housing and wraparound services that support individuals during reentry and early recovery. Services include transitional housing, life-skills and workforce readiness programming, case management, and community connection opportunities. With Razor Sharp Digital’s human-first marketing approach — centered on authenticity, empathy, and impact storytelling — Rise Up TR will broaden its reach locally across St. Charles County and regionally to prospective donors, referral partners, and volunteers.
“Partnering with Razor Sharp Digital is a game-changer for us,” said Angelica Winston (Executive Director of Rise Up). “Our work is built on relationships and real-life stories of recovery. With Razor Sharp’s strategic expertise and creative direction, we’ll be able to share those stories more widely and deepen community support for people working toward stable, independent lives.”
The collaboration will prioritize content that highlights client impact, volunteer and partner stories, and practical opportunities to support Rise Up TR’s programs — from donations and sponsorships to volunteer shifts and in-kind contributions. Together, Razor Sharp Digital and Rise Up Transitional Resources intend to translate awareness into action and to reinforce the shared belief that sustainable change begins with people.
