What if every school in Kosciusko County had a coordinated network of support behind it — so no teacher, no student, and no family had to carry a hard season alone?
No school stands alone. No family navigates hardship without connection.
Schools carry more than they should. Resources exist but school has become the default hub for needs they weren’t built to carry.
LovEd organizes churches as the hub of a coordinated network but business, volunteers, and other local advocates join in too.
Three commitments that shape how LovEd shows up
We Listen First
Schools are the experts on their students and families. LovEd starts by asking — not assuming. Every response begins with a need the school has identified and surfaced. We ask, what other supports already exist here: PTOs, advocates, other organizations.
We Focus on Social & Family Support
LovEd addresses the human needs that show up in schools — food instability over breaks, family crisis, housing pressure, foster placement, social connection.
We Coordinate, We Don't Deliver
LovEd organizes churches, volunteers, and community partners to respond. We build the network, hold the relationships, and provide necessary templates and tools to make it easy for churches.
