Apply to be a volunteer

Rising Dawn is trying to create a legacy, and we can’t do that without helping hands.

Need volunteer hours for college? Want a fun hobby to do in your off time? Want to help a indie magazine go big? You’re in the right spot.

Here at Rising Dawn we are based on humanity, and humanity is based on community. When you join us, you aren’t just joining an online magazine. You’re joining a community and a safe place to be yourself.

Right now we aren’t able to provide our volunteers with a financial bonus, however we are trying to create enough financial abundance that we are able to give volunteers bonuses as needed.

Additionally, volunteers get free merch and early access to works!

Founder
I am an author and a poet, I hope to work with Rising to save humanity by replacing an emphasis on empathy, particularly by using art as an empathy builder.
My goal is for Rising to be a safe space for artists to express their humanity, and to help others find peace.
