Spring Thrive Drive

Who We Are
InStill Mindfulness is a nonprofit located in the Town of Pulaski, serving all of Pulaski County, with a Mission to Cultivate a Mindful World for All, with Kindness, Compassion and Care, through Education, Action and Community.

Mindfulness is a practice of being present, non-judgmental, and self-aware. Benefits include stress reduction, improved focus, reduced depression and increased creativity. Our InSpire gatherings, Daily Meditations, Retreats, Wellness Programs and Lending Library give community members emotional regulation and resilience tools, which foster better relationships and habits.

Action through Service at the heart of our Mission. We provide tailor-made classes in the community, and at the InStill Center for Wellbeing in downtown Pulaski, we host a range of free classes and workshops that address grief, stress, and recovery. Our team of Peer Recovery Specialists use lived experience to support community members, with resources, referrals, and basic needs, encouraging recovery through developing emotional resilience and mental wellness. As people recover, they are more able to contribute to our community, benefiting everyone here in Pulaski and beyond.

In recognition of our growing impact and leadership, InStill was honored as Non-Profit of the Year by the Pulaski County Chamber of Commerce in 2025.

Why This Matters—Now
Like many people, Pulaski residents are confronted by myriad societal and economic challenges. Struggles with grief, overwhelm, disconnection, homelessness, mental health, and substance use disorder impact us all.

InStill responds by providing accessible, practical programming designed to help people address these issues. To meet this need responsibly and sustainably, we are building a stronger base of local philanthropic support.
