Back to school season is exciting for a lot of families, but for some, getting ready for September comes with real financial pressure. If you're looking for a meaningful way to support a child in your community, our Back to School Kindness Kits are a great place to start!
Each kit is …put together to make sure children have what they need to start the school year feeling prepared and confident. It's one of our Personal Wellness Kits, and every dollar donated goes directly toward supporting a child right here at home.
Visit the link in our bio to donate or learn more about our full range of Kindness Kits. Thank you for your support! 💚

Happy International Youth Day! 🙌
This year's theme, "Different Contexts, Common Aspirations," speaks to something really important. Young people's lives look very different depending on where they grow up, but so many of the challenges they face are shared. Access to… quality education, meaningful work, mental health support, digital inclusion and a sense of belonging are things young people around the world are navigating, including right here in our community.
Recognizing those differences brings us all closer together. When invest in young people who are facing the greatest barriers, everyone is better for it.
The youth we work with every day are resilient, creative and full of potential. They deserve communities that genuinely show up for them and remove barriers rather than create them.
To every young person in our community: we see you and we're rooting for you! 💚
