“Growing up we never really expected much because we were told Carissa won’t be able to do this, she won’t be able to do that…If KANDU didn’t exist, I don’t know what we would do. I cannot imagine a world without the support we get from KANDU.”

🍷 Sip, savor, and support a great cause! Join us for Grapes & Hops 2025, KANDU’s signature tasting event featuring local wineries, craft breweries, gourmet hors d'oeuvres, live music, and a silent auction—all in support of programs that empower individuals with disabilities and ...aging adults across Southern Wisconsin.
Whether you're a wine enthusiast, beer lover, or just looking for a fun night out that means something—this is the event for you.
Every Friday, Julie—our incredible Client Services Director—leads a singalong with participants in KANDU's Adult Day Services and Memory Care program, filling the room with smiles, music, and fun.
These moments might seem simple, but they’re powerful. Singing together lights up ...memories, lifts spirits, and creates joy for our clients living with dementia and other cognitive challenges.
At KANDU, we believe in the power of community and compassion—and sometimes, a favorite old tune is all it takes to bring both to life. 💛
A heartfelt thank you to the family member of one of our amazing staff for donating art supplies to our ISP program! 🎨💛 Creative expression plays a powerful role in our clients’ growth and joy, and this thoughtful gift will be put to great use.
ISP, Minds in Motion, and Livin' and Learnin' clients visited the Nicholas Conservatory & Gardens in Rockford to see the Secret Life of Butterflies exhibit. They learned about the lifecycle of butterflies and got an up-close look at these amazing insects in their own habitat.

ISP is a program that offers shorter work days combined with activity time for clients who are transitioning to a day services or return-to-work program. Program activities are thoughtfully designed for work skill development. You can learn more about KANDU's programs here: www.kanduindustries.com
There’s something magical about music—especially when it fills a room with laughter, movement, and joy. Clients in KANDU's Adult Day Services & Memory Care program sang their hearts out during karaoke yesterday, and we had a blast!
For older adults, especially those living ...with dementia, music isn’t just fun—it’s therapeutic. It sparks memories, encourages social connection, and boosts emotional well-being in ways few other activities can.
At KANDU, we believe every day should feel meaningful. In our Adult Day Services and Memory Care program, clients are treated like family in a safe, accessible, home-like environment. With support from our trained professionals, they enjoy enriching activities, personalized care, and the kind of connection that brings dignity and joy to every moment.
Looking for compassionate daytime care for your loved one? We’re here to help. 💛
