Nonprofit Firefly Within Foundation is pairing with local schools to bring free mindfulness programs to students and staff. Beginning this semester at Estero High School, the foundation is conducting Mindfulness Club meetings from 2 to 3 p.m. every other Tuesday, plus supporting music education on a regular basis and HOPE health education classes each quarter for students and teachers.

The Firefly Within Foundation offers free, weekly meditations and monthly reiki shares as part of its mission to educate, inspire and support the community toward a state of personal balance and peace.

Other local middle and high schools interested in the mindfulness program can call foundation president Karin Wolfe at 239-980-3257, email [email protected] or visit FireflyWithin.org.
