🚨 ARK NEEDS WIPES—DESPERATELY! 🚨

We’re almost completely out of baby wipes, and we need your help! 🧻💙

At Ark Crisis Children’s Center, we go through LOTS of wipes every day caring for our littlest friends. Keeping our kiddos clean, comfortable, and cared for takes plenty of supplies, and right now, our shelves are nearly empty!

🛍️ Can you help us restock?
💙 Drop off packs of wipes at Ark!
📦 Order directly from our Amazon Wishlist and have them shipped to us!

Every pack makes a difference for the children we serve. If you can help, we would be SO grateful!

🙏 Please SHARE this post to help us spread the word. You never know who might be able to help!

Thank you for always showing up for Ark and our kiddos! ❤️

Ok of Ark! This is your chance to help another great community organization AND help Ark in the process. The nonprofit that has the most volunteers will receive a $1000 shopping spree!

Aside from that of course, Toy Town is one of (if not the) largest providers of gifts for children at Christmas. And it's a ton of fun to volunteer!

Dates are December 15, 16, and 17th and they have morning and afternoon slots available. Sign up now before they are all filled--and remember to put down you're volunteering on behalf of Ark! :)

💙 A HUGE thank you to the Indiana Youth & College NAACP for choosing Ark as the recipient of this year’s Legacy Project! 💙

More than 40 young leaders from across Indiana spent their Friday evening at Ark, creating sensory boards that will make a lasting difference for the children we serve. What an incredible way to invest in our community!

These interactive panels give children opportunities to explore different textures, movements, and activities through hands-on play. They can help children develop focus, explore their senses, and find moments of calm—all while creating a more engaging and inclusive environment for children of all abilities.

We are so grateful to these young leaders for giving their time, creativity, and energy to a project that will benefit Ark’s children for years to come. Your impact goes far beyond the walls you helped create! 💙

Thank you for leaving a legacy at Ark! 🫶

🎄🎁 HELP MAKE CHRISTMAS MAGICAL FOR AN ARK CHILD! 🎁🎄
Christmas is coming, and you can help make the season brighter for a child or sibling at Ark Crisis Children’s Center by signing up to adopt a child for Christmas! ❤️

Our Christmas Adoption Program connects generous individuals, families, churches, and businesses with children who could use a little extra Christmas magic.

✨ IMPORTANT FOR RETURNING ADOPTERS: We don’t have last year’s adoption list, so even if you’ve adopted a child in the past, you MUST sign up again this year! We would love to have you be part of making Christmas special once more.

🎁 Ready to make a difference? Sign up here:
👉 https://www.arkcrisis.org/christmas-adoption-program

Let’s come together to make sure our Ark kiddos feel loved, remembered, and celebrated this Christmas! 💙

And the THANKS just keep on coming! 💙

Today’s spotlight is on Autism Everyone, who generously donated 10 pairs of noise-canceling headphones to Ark! 🎧

These headphones are a wonderful addition to our classrooms, helping children with sensory sensitivities feel more comfortable and giving any child who needs it a chance to take a little (quiet) break.

Our sweet 4–5-year-old girls were more than happy to step up as our models and official testers! 🥰

Thank you, Autism Everyone, for helping us create a more supportive, sensory-friendly environment where every child can feel safe and cared for! 💙

More thank yous! This time we're extremely grateful to Physician Correctional USA for providing supplies for our AED unit. Hopefully we never have to use them but we are prepared if we do!
