Organizer and founder of RISE Shreveport, Dr. DeMarkus Webb, shares the importance of events such as these, “#FightForYou Fest is a heartbeat for the community, an open invitation to R.I.S.E. above fear, failure, and frustration. It’s not just for those in crisis, but for every person who needs a reminder that their story still matters, and that they are still worthy of wellness, joy, and growth.
The all-day event is scheduled from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. and will take place at Bill Cockrell Park.
