Have you downloaded the Purposity App? Purposity is an online way for our community to support each other. Together we have filled over 660 needs here in Westfield, Indiana since January 20, 2020.
When our WWS Counselors, nurses, teachers, and administration are our liaisons hear of a need for a student or family we start the process to meet the need. Needs are then submitted to Purposity and soon will appear on the app. As a community member, you will have the opportunity to read about the need and sponsor it with the touch of a button. The donor and recipient remain anonymous at all times.
What a meaningful way to be #wwsALLin!

“The holidays are a wonderful time of giving and generosity, but the needs of our community continue year-round,” said Ashley Knott, Rocks Family Experience Coordinator. “Whether it is a pair of shoes, or a binder, we know our community has a giving heart and we want to support each other. Most items on the list are under $30, which make giving budget-friendly.”
Purposity, short for purpose + generosity, sends a weekly notification to users with a confidential need in their area. With just a few clicks, people can satisfy needs ranging from shoes and jackets for a local student to small household items for a family that lost their home in a fire. No personal information will be connected to the needs. The app also features user profiles that track donors’ giving, allowing them to see their impact. Needs are uploaded by school counselors at Westfield Washington Schools. “We wanted to create a way for communities to connect and unite in a meaningful way,” stated Blake Canterbury, founder, and CEO. “Our belief is that if you knew your neighbor needed help, you’d help.”

"Purposity provides our community with a great opportunity to help Westfield students and families actively contribute to the overall wellbeing of our neighbors,” said Kyle Miller, coordinator of social and emotional learning for WWS. “We live in such a caring community, and Purposity opens a door for individuals to meet real-time, tangible needs for families facing life challenges.”
