Our final feature is 12th grade winner Zoey Motto! We truly thank all of the students who submitted their designs and to the Green Bandana Project for helping get the word out!

"My name is Zoey Motto, I am a Senior at Indiana Area Senior High School. For my design it featured a sunflower with a butterfly on it with a quote. I choose each of my complaints with meaning for this. I chose the sunflower since it represents happiness and longevity. I wanted the butterfly to be perched on the flower since it is a universal sign for suiside prevention and represents transformation, and personal growth. The body of the butterfly is a semicolon since it means to show hope, strength and a continuation. I had participated in this contest since I think it is important to advocate for something important like this. It is okay to not be okay, and people are always here to help you."

You can find this design and all the others throughout coffee shops in Indiana County!

Coming up next, our 11th grade winner Keylee Gunnarsson!

"My name is Keylee Gunnarsson, and I’m an 11th grader from Indiana, PA. The inspiration for my sticker design came from using the ribbon as a symbol because it’s easy to read and really "pops" on a coffee cup. This cause is incredibly close to my heart; I’ve spent years helping others through dark times, and I had lost my cousin to su***de when I was only 10. I chose to use my art to speak out because I want to turn my personal experiences into something that can help others find their way back to the light. I hope this sticker acts as a wake-up call of hope to remind people that they matter and are never truly alone. "

Next up we have our 10th grade winner Teresa Wang!

"My name is Teresa Wang, and I am a student at Indiana Senior High School. I have always enjoyed creating art that is aesthetic and uplifting. For this contest, my goal was to create a design that felt pretty and approachable. I wanted something that would look great on a coffee cup while providing a sense of calm and positivity to anyone who sees it. I’m happy to support the Su***de Task Force’s mission and contribute to a cause that encourages community care and mental health awareness."

Pet some cats, enjoy the coffee, and try to remember that this too shall pass

A friendly reminder that though life gets tough sometimes, you are not alone. We are so proud to feature these stickers, designed by a 9th grade student of Indiana High School, on our cups. If there’s one thing we take seriously at Dexter’s, it’s making sure everyone who walks through the door feels welcomed, heard, and appreciated. As the semester winds down and some of our students head off for post school life, it’s not lost on me how many of those faces come to say bye before heading home. We honored to be a part of your home away from home💕

We hope you never need it but if you do, please call the Armstrong-Indiana County Crisis Hotline

The first featured student is our 9th grade winner Ronalda Nyanzi!

"My name is Ronalda Nyanzi and I am in 9th grade at Indiana Senior High School. I was inspired to create the coffee sleeve sticker design because I believe that everyone deserves to feel supported. I want my design to remind people that they are not alone and that there is always help available. This cause is important to me because I care about spreading kindness. With my design I hoped to create something simple but can bring comfort to someone. "

We loved the hands concept with Ronalda's idea because we feel like it captures the idea of either reaching out for help or someone offering a hand to help.

You'll find this design and the others in coffee shops around Indiana County!
