Cincinnati, OH – October 17, 2025 — Best Point Education & Behavioral Health was honored to be one of the nonprofit organizations selected by Thomas More University for its annual Saints Serve Day, a campus-wide initiative that mobilizes students, faculty, and staff in support of local community partners.
For the third consecutive year, Thomas More University students and faculty volunteered with Best Point as part of this meaningful tradition. This year’s collaboration focused on transforming the Wainscott Garden at Best Point’s Main Campus (5050 Madison Road, Cincinnati, OH 45227). Volunteers spent the day preparing the garden for spring, revitalizing the space to support hands-on learning and therapeutic programming for children served by Best Point.
The Wainscott Garden Transformation created a vibrant outdoor classroom where youth can explore planting, nurturing seeds, and environmental stewardship. The project aligned with Best Point’s commitment to holistic education and behavioral health support.
“This partnership is a powerful example of how community engagement directly supports our mission,” said John Banchy, President & CEO of Best Point. “We’re grateful to Thomas More University for choosing Best Point as one of its service sites. Their volunteers helped us create nurturing environments where children can grow, learn, and heal.”
“Saints Serve is more than just a single day dedicated to service. It’s an opportunity to live out our mission in action and embrace our shared responsibility to others. While this day united our university community in hands-on service, our hope is that the lessons learned and connections made with partners like Best Point extend far beyond October 14th,” said President Joseph L. Chillo, LP.D.
