McMillen Health Receives Grant from KREMC Operation Round Up

FORT WAYNE —  McMillen Health has received a generous grant from the KREMC Operation Round Up fund, administered by the Kosciusko County Community Foundation, to deliver vital preventative health education to students throughout Kosciusko County.

This initiative will serve approximately 125 students from preschool through 12th grade, offering age-appropriate, fact-based health education sessions on a variety of critical topics. The programming is designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to make informed, healthy choices now and into adulthood.

As part of its commitment to measurable outcomes, McMillen Health educators will assess student knowledge both before and after each session, aiming for a minimum 35% increase in health literacy.

“We’re incredibly grateful to Kosciusko REMC for supporting the health and well-being of local youth,” said Taylor Yoder, Interim Executive Director of McMillen Health. “This funding enables us to bring our trusted education programs directly to students in Kosciusko County, helping create a stronger, healthier future for the entire community.”

The grant also covers transportation expenses, ensuring accessibility for schools and organizations across the county.
