Give for Good: A Little Goes a Long Way

Give for Good: Let Us Learn

Looking for a meaningful way to support health, education, and community resilience this month? Meet Let Us Learn, Inc., a grassroots nonprofit based in Floyd County, Indiana, and supported by CHMRC, that’s transforming lives through local food access and hands-on learning.

Let Us Learn is participating in Give for Good Louisville, the biggest day of local online giving in the Kentuckiana region, hosted by the Community Foundation of Louisville.

On September 18, every donation helps Let Us Learn:

  • Reach its goal of 90+ individual gifts to qualify for bonus prize funds.
  • Expand its reach across schools and neighborhoods in Floyd County and Southern Indiana.
  • Transform invested dollars into real, local impact, across families and classrooms.

What They Do

Let Us Learn connects families to healthy food and knowledge through:

  • School gardens & educational programs in six local schools, teaching kids gardening, nutrition, and sustainability.
  • Youth Harvest & Veggie Rescue projects, gleaning fresh produce from gardens and local farmers to distribute via free or pay-what-you-can farm stands.
  • Family garden kits & meal prep classes, empowering households to grow their own healthy produce and cook smart on a budget.

Why Your Gift Matters

With rising food prices and shrinking SNAP benefits, Let Us Learn addresses food insecurity at its roots:

  • Creating access where grocery stores and budgets fall short.
  • Building knowledge, so families don’t just eat food, they grow, understand, and sustain it.
  • Supporting youth empowerment, as kids cultivate pride, teamwork, and healthy habits through garden-based learning.

Even a small gift makes a big impact. Here is what $10 dollars can accomplish:
