Join us for our annual Harvesting Hope: Healing Begins with US mental health fundraiser, an inspiring evening dedicated to supporting teen mental health counseling. This special event will bring our community together to foster awareness, provide resources, and spark change for the young people who need it most.
Featuring a thoughtfully curated wine tasting, heavy hors d’oeuvres, entertainment, music, silent auction, raffles and engaging opportunities to learn more about our mental health assistance mission. Harvesting Hope promises a warm and uplifting atmosphere. Together, we can cultivate resilience and plant the seeds for brighter futures.
Proceeds go towards the Troy Kiwanis KIT (Kiwanis Inspired Teens) Fund. This fund provides mental health counseling financial assistance funding for youth needing counseling who can’t afford sessions. (Due to lack of insurance or other means.)
When we replace the “i” in mental illness to “we” – it becomes mental wellness.
Why did we create the KIT Fund? This is our why...from the lips of counselors helping our youth become mentally well.......
School counselor: Most times, when school counselors like us make therapy referrals for "economically" at-risk students, we cross our fingers and keep our expectations realistic. And hope. Most times, these students end up back in our offices because there is nowhere else to go. If this sounds desperate, it's because it is.
The KIT/ARISE program has embraced our most at-risk students. The cases are clinically significant wherein the lack of treatment will likely spur negative coping strategies like school avoidance and substance abuse. We feel incredible relief that we are able to see a case through to where students are actually receiving therapy.
The gratitude that comes from knowing top-notch therapists are working with our students is tremendous. I can't fully convey the depth of this feeling. We always cheer for each other when one of us makes a referral to the KIT Fund/ARISE collaboration. It feels like such a victory. Thank you, thank you for helping school counselors too!!
