About Us
We are thrilled to introduce 100 for 1000, a powerful new endowment dedicated to Brain Health Initiatives right here in Delaware County, Iowa!
The truth is simple: Mental Health IS Brain Health. Yet, as the need for vital support grows in our communities, we are facing the challenging reality of diminishing funding across our rural landscape. We see the need, we feel the urgency, and we know we can't wait.
That's why we're building this endowment—to be a stable, sustainable source of hope. With your partnership, this fund will champion creative, innovative ways to bring critical brain health initiatives and services directly to our small towns.
This isn't just a fund; it's a commitment to a healthier future. While the endowment grows toward its first distribution in 2025, we are actively in a time of deep listening, learning, and strategizing. We are currently collaborating with area schools, dedicated healthcare providers, and passionate local organizations to develop new and innovative ways to address the mental health needs of every resident.
Your support helps us build a thriving Delaware County where every brain is nurtured and every person can access the support they need to succeed!
Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our families, friends, and one another. 100 for 1000. Caring Multiplies.
