🎓 248 STUDENTS. 3 CHAPTERS. ONE BIG C.A.R.E. FAMILY. 💙💛 CARE Indy CARE Northwest Indiana

And just like that… 248 college students across all three C.A.R.E. University chapters have been sent off with the necessities they need to start the school year! 🎒📚✨

But this is about so much more than tangible items. Our students also received words of encouragement, wisdom, love, and support from community members, volunteers, and their peers, reminders that they are not walking this journey alone. ❤️

We are FOREVER grateful for our incredible **volunteers, donors, partners, and supporters** whose outpouring of love continues to make a difference in the lives of our young people. Your generosity helps us remind every student: You are seen. You are supported. You are capable. And we believe in you!

To our students and parents/guardians, THANK YOU for allowing C.A.R.E. University to be a part of your journey. It is an honor to walk alongside you and cheer you on every step of the way!

Now go out there and make us proud! 🎓💪🏾

Wishing ALL of our students an amazing, successful, and safe start to the school year! We can’t wait to see those “Move-In Day” photos! 🏠📸🎉

Go be GREAT, CARE students! The best is yet to come! 💙💛

🎉 **The Celebration Continues!** 🎉

As we celebrate **10 Years of CAREing**, we're incredibly honored to be featured in Elkhart Living Magazine.

This story highlights not only the journey of CARE, but also the **"why"** behind it all. What began with a simple desire to ensure students had the support, encouragement, and resources they needed to succeed has grown into a community-wide movement that has impacted hundreds of students and families.

Our founder's heart has always been rooted in one belief: **every student deserves someone who believes in them.** That purpose continues to drive everything we do, and we couldn't have reached this milestone without the unwavering support of our volunteers, donors, partners, board members, and community.

Thank you to Elkhart Living Magazine for helping us share our story, and thank you to everyone who has been part of the last decade of changing lives through education.

Here's to celebrating the past, embracing the present, and continuing to make a difference for years to come! 💙🧡

A huge THANK YOU to Joshua Short and Lauren Moss for taking the time to pour into our students at our 10th Annual CARE Elkhart College Kickoff! 💙🎓

Your words of encouragement, authentic stories, and willingness to invest in the next generation made a lasting impact. As our students prepare to begin this exciting new chapter, they were reminded that success is built through perseverance, purpose, and believing in themselves.

At CARE Elkhart, we believe it truly takes a community to help students thrive, and we are incredibly grateful for community leaders like Josh and Lauren who continue to inspire, uplift, and empower our future leaders.

Thank you for helping us celebrate 10 years of CAREing and for making this year's College Kickoff one to remember! 💙💛

Sending a HUGE CARE Elkhart S/O to Coach Curry and the Elkhart Lions Football Team. They were the real MVPs this past weekend. What normally would have taken 7 hours to do, we got done in 2 and a half hours.

Coach Curry, thank you for planting a seed of a servant's heart in your players. You should be so proud as a coach, these young men showed up and did exactly what was asked of them and more. We can't thank you all enough.

To all of our followers be sure to get out and support Elkhart Lions Football this upcoming season. GO LIONS!!! 🤗🦁🏈💪💙💛
