OUR STORY

About Us

Founded by Sibusisu Vilane, Nicole Capper and William Butler, Uprising is an NPO that supports those with rare diseases by using their mobility to do what other can't. By going on trekking adventures and helping people overcome their own battles, they raise funds for organisations such as Rare Diseases South Africa and CHOC.

Mission

We climb to honour the bravery of children with dread diseases and their families who face their daily challenges with a smile. Nicole, Will and Sibusiso lead teams of adventurers on epic climbs, to raise funds and awareness for charities supporting children with Rare Diseases, and to transform the lives of the trekkers themselves. 

"May you learn to embrace the freedom that has long been calling your name so you can liberate courage in others so they can do the same." Morgan Harper Nichols
