We are so incredibly grateful to be part of such a supportive community! ❤️

A huge thank you to the Community Foundation of the Ozarks for awarding the Foundation for SPS a $5,000 grant through the Jewell Schweitzer Quality of Life program. We also want to share a special thank you to Laurie Edmondson for her generous support in making this possible.

These funds will go directly toward our Back-to-School Grant Program, helping our amazing SPS educators dismantle learning barriers and ensure every student has what they need to succeed. 🍎✨

Congratulations to all the other incredible local nonprofits recognized yesterday! Together, we’re making Springfield a better place to learn and grow.
