From Chaos to Calm:
Transforming Allentown's Future.

Mindful Child Initiative (previously known as Pratyush Sinha Foundation) believes that every child in Allentown has the opportunity to become a shining and healthy member of the community. MCI helps them develop important life skills such as regulating their emotions, and execute this through a variety of educational programs, workshops and activities. The end goal is to help children become more confident, resilient, and kind-hearted individuals who are better equipped to navigate life's challenges and contribute positively to society.

When it was time for them to finally evolve into the larger, stronger and mature organization they had become, they turned to us for help. We spent a large period of time absorbing everything there is to learn about them, what was new, what was outdated, and how they needed to be as a brand - both in voice and appearance - starting with deep strategy and ending with a beautiful and unique look.

THE STRATEGY

Differentiating from other mindfulness organizations by focusing strictly on Allentown School District’s children, the adults and parents who surround them, and the local donors and contributors. It was also crucial to challenge the stigma and stereotype surrounding mindfulness, dispelling the notion that it is exclusively reserved for crystal collectors and yoga enthusiasts.

In actuality, mindfulness is supported by empirical evidence and scientific research, offering advantages that extend to individuals across diverse mental, religious, and political perspectives.
