Iu Mien Community Services

As Big Day of Giving comes to a close, our hearts are full 💚 Thank you to every person who donated, shared our posts, cheered us on, and supported today. Your generosity helps us continue building programs that bring our community together across generations. You helped us reach above and beyond our goal of $15,000 and engaged 100 individual donors! That just speaks volume to us. Because of you, we can continue supporting youth through programs like Mind Matters, where students write poetry, build confidence, and find community during lunchtime spaces designed just for them ✨ Because of you, we can also continue creating safe and joyful spaces for our Healthy Village Seniors through wellness activities, movement classes, cultural connection, and community care. Every donation — big or small — helps make this work possible. Thank you for believing in our mission, our families, our youth, and our elders. The love and support we felt today means more than we can say 💛

Mind Matters has become more than just a lunchtime program — it’s become a space where students can slow down, express themselves, and feel supported ✨️🌈 Through poetry writing, creative activities, and honest conversations, we’ve watched students grow in confidence, build meaningful friendships, and make space for their mental wellness during the school day. Hearing them say “We love Mind Matters!” reminds us just how special this community has become. To every student who shows up, shares their voice, and makes this space what it is: the love goes both ways! 🥹🫶💖 #MindMatters #iumiencommunity #Poetry #YouthPrograms #MentalHealthAwareness

“What does Mind Matters mean to you?” We asked our students this question as we prepare for Big Day of Giving — and their answers reminded us exactly why this program matters so deeply. 💚 Mind Matters is more than a lunch program. It is poetry. It is safety. It is community. It is creativity. It is food, laughter, healing, and a place where young people feel seen. Our students wrote about finding their voices, building confidence, discovering they are capable of creating art, and finally having a space where they can simply be themselves. One student wrote: “This program gives me a safe space where I can truly be myself.” Another shared: “Young people need a space to talk and speak what they need to say, and this program does that.” And maybe one of our favorite lines: “The joy from this program I have cannot fit in this notebook.” 🥹 Tomorrow is Big Day of Giving, and we are asking our community to help us continue this work. Your donations help us provide: ✨ meals for students ✨ poetry and mental health programming ✨ creative opportunities ✨ safe spaces for connection and self-expression If Mind Matters has touched you, made you smile, or reminded you how important programs like this are for youth, please consider donating or sharing this post. Every contribution helps us continue showing up for these students. 💚 Donate tomorrow for Big Day of Giving 💚 Support youth voices 💚 Help us keep Mind Matters going #BigDayOfGiving #MindMatters #IMCS #YouthVoices #MentalHealthMatters
