Financial Aid
We are pleased to offer a rebate to help offset some of the costs of participation. All rebates will be returned to you after the Wisconsin Catholic Youth Rally. We can only provide a rebate for those who attended––any empty seats will be charged full price.
Arise Milwaukee will notify you by February 1st about the status of your financial aid.
Please email mackenzie@arisemke.org as soon as possible to inquire about applying for the WCYR rebate. All financial aid requests must be submitted by January 15!
Financial aid will be evaluated on a first come first serve basis, so we do recommend submitting the form early and registering early to avoid tickets selling out.
Get involved!
We are in need of volunteers to make the two days a success. If you’d like to volunteer for one or both days, please contact Elizabeth Maier at wcyrvolunteers@gmail.com
Please note that all volunteers must be Safe Environment Trained.
“I am grateful for the Wisconsin Catholic Youth Rally and how this event offers a powerful message to teens. My son was so touched by the event that he thanked me for purchasing a WCYR t-shirt for him. He told me when he wore this t-shirt it would remind him of what a gift the event was. He commented he felt like a different person that day and that the event was life-changing. Thank you Arise Ministry!.”
Elisa, 2022 volunteer
“This rally motivated me to begin praying daily and confide in the Lord.”
All Saints Catholic School Student, 2023 attendee
“I knew something was going on in my heart that I didn't really understand... That night in Adoration, I encountered Jesus, and my life has never been the same.”
Emily N., 2014 & 2022 attendee
"We worked hard as a planning team this year to make sure the WCYR was very interactive, rather than just a video to watch. These kids are tired of online schooling. We made sure there were games, check-ins with off-site groups and engagement in group Rosaries. I think that really made a difference for those who were not able to be here in-person.”
Missy, WCYR Volunteer
“When at this rally, I made a realization. When it was time for adoration, I realized Jesus is actually present. I always knew this, but when I was there, I realized the importance. It seemed so different. I got a gut feeling. I will use this to know God always cares about us.”
All Saints Catholic School Student, 2023 attendee
“The Rally is very fun and inspiring. It’s helped me to meet Jesus and to reform my life a little bit. It’s a touching experience; the speakers are really great and the songs hit the heart in the right spot. The encounter with Jesus at Adoration is perfect.”
Jack D., 2021 attendee
“The WCYR has been very educational for my growth and religious faith. The music and speakers are very loud, but pull me into a different kind of prayer. You should bring something to take notes on the speakers so you can reflect on it later.”
Helen S., 2021 attendee
"I am different than when I came. It was life-changing."
Daniel, 2022 attendee
“I can only describe the Wisconsin Catholic Youth Rally in one word: AMAZING!”
Emily M., 2021 attendee
'What made a big impact on me was the number of students who stood up wanting to be priests or sisters."
All Saints Catholic School Student, 2023 attendee
