“Kelley Partners Club and Kelley Kids helped my family feel at home in Bloomington. Together our family found the support we needed—from community resources and childcare to fun club activities and small-group meetups at the park. It enhanced our overall experience at Kelley to make friends who are there for us, even while I was working on a full-time MBA.”
