Bench #27 has been donated to Glendale Elementary in Madison, Wisconsin because of many kindnesses. I learned about Glendale because of the work done by the Institute for Healthy Minds - a place dedicated to studying the mind and what makes some of us more resilient than others when faced with trauma. I had a very lengthy chat with Chad McGehee {a vital member of this team} about all that they are doing throughout the schools in Madison - Glendale being one of them. I was so excited to learn about their research and ways kindness and mindfulness are being used to help these young children deal with the many tough issues they face. I can think of no more exciting place to see a bench be placed than Glendale Elementary - hats off to all they are doing!
