"Formed on November 12, YouthRisePH started with 5 youth groups determined to work together to provide relief to victims. Among those who pioneered the effort were Online Sustainable Development Goals Youth Action Forum, Kids for Kids, Makesense Philippines, Black Fawn Events, and AIESEC in the Philippines. The initiative later pulled in more than 1,000 volunteers and 250 partner organizations that allowed it to organize relief efforts, connect with corporations for aid, consolidate rescue requests, and provide load to victims of recent disasters."
