Sparking Connection Igniting Hope… Together!

We Did It! Thank You!

Our community stepped up in a big way!  Thanks to you, Kindling Minds raised $26,000, during our End-of-Year Campaign - exceeding our goal of $20,000.

We couldn’t have done it without our founder, Nancy Elbert, and her children’s $2,000 match to help us cross the finish line. Those of you who donated when we announced the match - we see you.

Your support will help us continue the important work of helping teens and pre-teens in central Indiana build resilience and improve mental wellness through research-informed programs rooted in connection—with animals, nature, and art.

Here’s to a healthy, impactful, and meaningful 2026! 

With gratitude,
The Kindling Minds Team
