7,427. đź’š

That's the total number of critical health, hunger, and hygiene items distributed to students through our on-site Care to Learn Closets in Springfield Public Schools last month.

And Springfield is just one piece of the picture.

Across Missouri, our Care to Learn Chapters are working every day to keep their own Closets stocked and ready for students in need, too.

What a GIFT! đź’š

We are honored to celebrate the incredible generosity of Dr. Sandra L. “Sandy” D’Angelo, whose $50,000 gift to Care to Learn will make a lasting impact on students in our community.

This extraordinary gift will help provide critical health, hunger, and hygiene resources, ensuring students have what they need to feel confident, supported, and ready to succeed.

We are deeply grateful for Dr. D’Angelo’s generosity and proud to carry forward her legacy of giving by making a meaningful difference in the lives of students, both in the classroom and beyond.

Thank you for helping us make more moments possible!

Branson High School’s The Harbor, a resource pantry established earlier this school year to support Branson Public Schools students and families, is expanding its reach to the broader community. 💚

Since the start of the 2026-27 school year, The Harbor has served nearly 100 Branson Public Schools families. The expansion of community hours will provide an additional resource for families and community members who may need access to food, household essentials and school supplies.

The pantry is made possible through Christian Action Ministries, as well as Together for Kids, a partnership between the Silver Dollar City Foundation and Care to Learn, and is managed by the Care to Learn - Branson chapter. Branson High School staff and students, along with these community partners, have helped establish and stock the pantry.

“We are incredibly grateful for the response to The Harbor since we opened,” said Branson High School Principal Dr. Sara Strohm. “We know there are families in our community who may need a little extra support from time to time, and we want The Harbor to be a place where people can come without judgement. Our goal is to meet people where they are and help remove any barriers standing between our students and their opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.”
