  • Kettering Health

    “The journals from Kettering Health have become an integral part of the Van Buren Middle School’s Social-Emotional Learning program. Every student has a journal to record their thoughts and reflections after each lesson which is tremendously beneficial!”

    -Jeff Blakley, Hope Squad Adviser

  • Giving Tuesday

    “We are tremendously thankful for the generosity of the community in our first Giving Tuesday campaign! Thanks to nearly 50 donors, we have earmarked $5,013 toward a designed outdoor learning space at Oakview. We are working closely with the Oakview staff and Kettering building services to create a space to be used by every grade level and community partners. We are thrilled to see this piloted at Oakview and look forward to expanding it to every elementary school!”

    -Jessica Stickel, KCS Forward Foundation Executive Director

  • Dor-Wood Optimist Club

    “Support from the Dor-Wood Optimist Club has enhanced experiences for students from elementary to high school through their gifts designated for KAP, Hope Squad and STEAM. Hope Squad and KAP students have had more opportunities to educate their community about mental health and healthy eating while elementary students have been able to put their critical thinking skills to use with Legos. We’re grateful for this partnership!”
