Testimonials Care to Learn provides resources to all students anonymously, however the following story is an example of support a student in one chapter received: “Care to Learn continues to really help us ‘connect the dots’ to get real help quickly for students in need. One of our high school teachers reached out about a student that recently re-enrolled in our district and cannot see the board and cannot get glasses until next week when she gets paid. The teacher was concerned that the student wouldn’t have the money the needed so she reached out to see if Care to Learn could help. Our chapter was able to get the student an appointment with an optometrist in Springfield and even made sure she had the transportation she needed to get to the appointment.”
