🦋 Nathan’s Butterflies is honored to be attending the Endicott Rotary International Club meeting on Thursday, April 30th!
Our presentation will share the story behind Nathan’s Butterflies, a nonprofit founded by Ben Cucci after the loss of his infant brother, Nathan, in 2016. What began as one act of kindness has grown into a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to inspiring compassion and supporting youth-led kindness projects throughout Broome and Tioga Counties.
Today, Ben is a 10th grade student at Vestal High School with a vision to create a stronger network of support for children and teens experiencing grief, while continuing to encourage young people to make a difference in their communities.
We’re grateful for the opportunity to share our mission and connect with others who believe in the power of kindness. 💙🦋
