After a school submits an application to KyleCares and is awarded a $2,000 KyleCares Grant, the following steps highlight how the funds will be dispersed:

• KyleCares sends Active Minds $700 which guarantees the new school chapter receives three important benefits:

1. • A comprehensive launch kit full of supplies and giveaways ($250+ value).  The launch kit will consist of the following:
     1. • Active Minds tablecloth
        • 5 Active Minds logo t-shirts
        • An assortment of current Active Minds giveaways and swag

1. • In addition, $250 will go towards the school’s chapter fundraising goals (which makes them eligible for the annual free swag box as well as a “distinguished” chapter recognition).

1. • Specialized professional technical assistance to support their launch and sustainability.  In terms of technical support the students will have access to:

• • • • Active Minds National Staff, by phone or email
      • A discounted price for the Send Silence Packing suicide prevention display
      • An array of curated workbooks and materials to support the students in launching and sustaining their chapters
      • The Active Minds National Conference in Washington, DC
      • Ongoing support resources such as the monthly “Office Hours” with staff, the Fall “Online Student Summit”
      • The National Student Slack Network, where peers connect with one another to learn new ideas and support the work from around the country.

• KyleCares sends $1,300 directly to the newly formed chapter for their Chapter Launch Events which can be spent on supplies, incentives, food, promotional materials, etc. to help create a great event.
