Meet Zareus, one of our Academic Instructors. Zareus is inspired by the kids, supporting them and watching them grow has been incredibly rewarding, and their progress keeps him growing too, personally and professionally. His biggest win? The meaningful relationships he's built with each client, watching their personalities shine. Outside of work, he's with friends and family, at the gym, running, bowling, or exploring with his dog. Celebrate Zareus in the comments!

BloomKidz is an Arizona Qualifying Charitable Organization. That designation is granted by the state, and it means most of what we spend goes directly to serving Arizona families who need it. It also means something useful for you: Arizona taxpayers can support BloomKidz at no net cost.

Here is what that looks like in practice. If you pay Arizona state income tax, you can give up to $506 filing single or $1,009 filing jointly, and receive that full amount back as a dollar-for-dollar credit on your state return. Not a deduction. A credit. Money you were already sending to the state funds therapy rooms, scholarships, and services for kids right here in Chandler instead.

You do not have to itemize. There is no minimum gift. And you have until April 15, 2027 to make a gift that counts toward your 2026 taxes.

If this is something you are able to do, we are grateful. If it is not, sharing this with someone who pays Arizona taxes helps us just as much.

Our QCO code is 22764. Learn more at bloomkidz.org/giving

Early-bird registration for the Cardinals Climb ends soon. Lock in your spot on Team BloomKidz at the best rate before prices go up. February 20 is going to be one to remember, so come climb with us. T-Shirts will be available for pre-order in October! Link in bio to register for the team.

Last call for Yes Day tees. Pre-orders close tonight, so this is your final chance to grab an "Every Child Blooms" shirt before the walk. Do not miss it. Link in bio.

Meet Sarah, one of our Registered Behavior Technicians. Sarah brings so much heart to her work. She reminds herself that the voice a child hears from her today may become the voice they carry into tomorrow. Her greatest joy is supporting kids as they grow into their most authentic selves, through friendships, disappointments, and everything in between. A lifelong learner, she loves baking, making art, music, and exploring local shops when she's off the clock. Celebrate Sarah in the comments!

This September 21 marks the International Day of Peace — and we're taking it as a moment to step back and ask a simple question: what can we unite on?

For us, the answer is easy. We all want better for our kids. We want them supported, understood, and given every chance to grow into who they're meant to be.

That's the work we show up for every day at BloomKidz — helping children find their own kind of peace and their own steady progress, one small step at a time.

Here's to a more peaceful world for the little ones who will inherit it. 🤍

There is still time to say yes. Pre-orders for our "Every Child Blooms" Yes Day tees are open, but not for long. Order yours and wear it proudly at the walk. Link in bio to reserve your shirt.

Meet Jade, one of our Academic Instructors. Jade's inspiration is simple: seeing the kids grow. Her favorite win is watching a child understand and apply what they've learned in academy, going from "do I have to? this is hard" to "oh, this is EASY!" Outside of work, she's dancing and spending time with her husband. Help us celebrate Jade in the comments!

Say yes to Yes Day. Our limited-edition "Every Child Blooms" tees are open for pre-order now, and every shirt helps us show up for the Yes Day walk. Soft, comfy, and made for a good cause. Pre-orders close soon, so grab yours today. Link in bio.
