Thank you everyone who donated at our blood drive yesterday! We had a great turnout and saved potentially 50 lives with the amount collected. 🌟

We are facing a national blood crisis, with summer blood donations falling to a four-year low. Your help is needed now to avoid surgery delays, postponed cancer treatments and strained emergency care.

Just three more donors at each blood drive this summer can end this crisis and stabilize the blood supply. Please don’t wait. Book an appointment to give blood now: https://rdcrss.org/4fQAcCu

With age, life can change in ways many don’t always expect. Retirement, the loss of a loved one, changes in health, or simply having fewer opportunities to connect with others can sometimes leave people feeling isolated or alone.

Our Senior Life Solutions program provides support for adults 65+ experiencing depression or anxiety and is also a place for connection, conversation, and community.

Sometimes, having a place to go, people to talk to, and others who understand can make all the difference.

If you or someone you love could benefit from a little more connection and support, our SLS team is here.

Self-referrals accepted. Call (217) 942-6504 to learn more.

We're thrilled to share that our Brighter Connections program has been awarded a Challenge What's Possible Innovation Grant from the Tracy Family Foundation!

This funding will allow 34 students in the North Greene School District to participate in the Brighter Connections program at school at no cost during the upcoming school year. The grant will also fund training for four staff members, helping ensure the program can continue serving students well into the future.

This opportunity would not have been possible without the dedication of our Brighter Connections Program Director, Allison Vandersand. From the countless hours she invested in preparing this grant application to the incredible care and passion she shows for every child in the program, Allison's commitment is truly life changing for many.

Thank you to the Tracy Family Foundation for believing in the mission of Brighter Connections!
