The Nest Schools of Avon selected “Love A Stray – Dog Division” as their KindNEST Charitable Partner for 2025—and their generosity is already making a difference. During their visit to present the donation, they met Walter, a sweet puppy with a condition called carpal laxity that affects his ability to walk.

Thanks to this heartfelt gift, Walter will now receive the physical therapy he needs to grow stronger and live a happy, healthy life.

Olivia, Director of The Nest Schools of Avon, along with her team, chose “Love A Stray Dog Division” as their KindNEST Charitable Giving partner for 2025. The organization’s mission deeply resonates with one of our core values—kindness—a value we strive to nurture in our children, our classrooms, and within each other every single day.
