Encourage Everyone is a student-led movement of 6th–12th graders
committed to spreading kindness and encouragement throughout our local schools and community.
What starts small can make a big impact—and this is just the beginning.
We launched on Encouragement Day, February 18, when we tried to put a post-it note of encouragement on every locker, of every student in every Intermediate, Middle & High School in our area. With 100,00 post-it notes, we're excited to see a few simple words change someone's day!
We'd love to hear your encouragement story! Share your story, your photos or your videos with us here. If possible, get your photos & videos horizontally, and we might include them in our recap video. Share your story with us soon for a chance to win $100 to Casey's!
We'll gather with any students who want to keep the encouragement going for our Encourage Everyone Rally on 2/22 from 6-8PM in the West Side Auditorium (2850 Mill Lane). We’ll celebrate what God is doing and invite students to take the next step as encouragers. Afterward, we'll have fun activities for our Jr. High (Silent Disco Party) & High School (Volleyball Tournament) students.
