Troy Kiwanis Foundation Supports Youth Mental Health Initiatives Check presentation for Kiwanis Inspired Teen (KIT) Fund
Troy, Michigan – March 10, 2025 - Troy Kiwanis Foundation is proud to announce the launch of its highly anticipated KIT (Kiwanis Inspired Teens) Fund, aimed at providing essential financial assistance for youth mental health counseling.
Troy Kiwanis members – President – Vicki Cerven-Astell and VP – Lori Sisk along with Troy School District Superintendent – Dr. Richard Machesky presented a $10,000 check to ARISE Counseling Center and Training Institute – Colleen Reveley (Co-Owner).
ARISE Counseling Center & Training Institute will provide mental health counseling sessions funded by the KIT Fund for community youth going through depression, anxiety or mental health crisis.
Mental health is an issue that affects millions of individuals, yet it remains a topic that many people still struggle to openly discuss. With this financial assistance fund, Troy Kiwanis Foundation hopes to provide families (with no financial means or insurance) obtain mental health counseling for their youth’s mental wellness.
This mental health assistance donation will support: • Youth mental health and well-being • Strategies for managing stress, anxiety, and depression.
“We believe that mental health should be treated with the same importance as physical health,” said Vicki Cerven-Astell, President of Kiwanis Club of Troy. “Our goal is to provide funds to help individuals understand that it’s “okay to not be okay”, to start conversations, and to ensure that no one feels alone in their journey.”
