Your generosity today becomes tomorrow’s scholarships, hot meals, warm coats, and moments of hope.
Right now, ElkhartCares is fundraising to bring a dedicated Youth Resiliency Coordinator to students in our district. This vital position is part of the proven Check & Connect program—an early intervention model designed to support students facing academic or emotional struggles before they fall through the cracks.
Through weekly one-on-one mentoring, students build trust with a caring adult who helps them navigate challenges, build confidence, and stay engaged in school. Our goal is to ensure that students have ongoing, personal support to improve their mental health, academic performance, and sense of belonging.
What Your Support Makes Possible:
Program Outcomes So Far
Our programs can only happen with your support.
Your donation helps fund essential services—from crisis assistance and classroom grants to community events, literacy programs, and holiday support—ensuring students and families have the resources they need to thrive.
Every donation helps create stories of hope and opportunity—like the student who received a washer and dryer so she could come to school clean and confident, or the 8th grader who was given a bike so he could join PE class and ride safely to school.
At ElkhartCares, we believe that small acts of generosity can change lives in big ways.
Whether you’re helping a student attend their first field trip, providing warm winter clothing for a child in need, or funding a classroom project that sparks curiosity—you’re part of something powerful.
You’re giving a student the chance to succeed in school, follow a passion, or pursue a career path they never thought possible. From instruments to tutoring to college credits—your gift helps bridge the gap.
Behind every donation, every hour volunteered, and every item distributed is a real story—a child who can focus because they’re warm, a teacher who feels seen, a family who finds hope.
Join us in making that difference, one act of care at a time.
Every dollar counts. Every gift is meaningful.
