We are honored to have been invited to present to the Youth Philanthropist students at Morris Community High School.

Each year the Community Foundation of Grundy County convenes students at area high schools and helps them to learn about nonprofits and philanthropy. In the spring, the students select the nonprofits they want to hear from and the nonprofits make presentations to the students.

In April, each Youth team is provided with $5,000 to distribute as grants to the nonprofits. 🤞

This effort is so meaningful. The Youth decide what's important to them, and are able to provide direct financial support to that cause. More importantly, they learn of resources in their local community.

Morris Community High School students are passionate about mental health - supporting themselves and each other.

Our future is bright with this level of awareness and commitment to community. 💚🫶

💚✨World Compliment Day reminds us that mental health isn’t always about big gestures.✨💚
Sometimes it’s as simple as saying:
“I see how hard you’re trying.”
“You matter here.”
“You make a difference.”
Encouragement creates safer spaces in our workplaces, in our homes, and in our community.
Who can you uplift today?

👀 👀 Looking for a meaningful way to give back in 2026?
📢 📢 Volunteering with us is a powerful way to support mental health in our community—and we’d love for you to be part of it. Our BeActive 5K wouldn't 'bee' so successful without our amazing group of volunteers that make it happen! Join the team this year on Saturday, May 16th. We need help with set up, registration, course monitors, water & snack stations, photographers, greeters, clean up and more! We have jobs for everyone! Even if you can spare an hour or two, it's a great help to us! To volunteer please contact our volunteer coordinator, Julie Arvia at jarvia2@namiwg.org or reach out to our info line at 815.409.7917.
Together, we can continue breaking stigma and building hope—one volunteer at a time. 💚💚
