Our Check in for Charity for September and October is Benhaven Academy, a cause that is near and dear to the hearts of SIN members Kari Sassu and Yana Strevens, whose sons attend the school. What makes Benhaven special is the way students are truly met where they are and supported by caring staff who recognize their individual strengths, encourage their goals, and help them grow academically and socially on their own terms. As Kari shared, “My son shows up as himself & is recognized as the capable, kind person he is.” Daniel, Yana’s son, describes his teachers as caring, fair and always willing to help their students. Donations to Benhaven help provide students and families with opportunities and resources that enrich their lives, including fitness and recreational activities, art classes, social outings, therapeutic materials, and other programs that support personal growth, independence and connection. For every Facebook check-in, SIN Fitness will donate 50¢ to Benhaven Academy. Your check-ins help provide fitness and recreational activities, social outings, therapeutic materials, and other resources that support students’ growth, independence, and well-being.
