Our world needs more 3rd spaces. Places for kids and adults to learn and imagine. We’re proud to be expanding learning environments that give everyone better access to resources and knowledge. That way knowledge continues between home, school, and out of school!

Our work with Boys and Girls Club is about more than a newly transformed education space: This is where new friendships grow outside of school!

Learning doesn’t stop when students leave the classroom!

We transform community learning spaces that students can use after school hours and during the summer months to stay sharp all summer long.

And we need you. Help us provide safe and inspiring spaces for kids! Go to the link in our bio to donate now.

During #mentalhealthawarenessmonth, we’re inspired to be kind to our minds via spaces like the beautifully renovated Wellness Room at the West 50th Campus of @nyc_commschools, which we completed with the help of our partners @NBACares and @statefarm.

In a 2021 survey* 63% of students said they had an emotional meltdown year, 22% said that mental health was the cause of 3 or more of their absences.

We want to reduce that. Kids need mental health spaces so they can be the best learners they can be!

Heart of America takes sustainability seriously. Every project gets a sustainability score and lots of thought goes into how we can make the most of what we have vs. buying new. It takes a lot of creativity and planning to be sustainable, but we’re up for the challenge!
