Breathe for Change

Breathe for Change hopes to fund scholarships for its teacher wellness program through an Indiegogo campaign that ends in June, the non-profit organization announced recently.

“It is an essential part of our mission to make our wellness programs accessible and affordable to ALL teachers and schools,” Breathe for Change said on its Indiegogo page. “Teacher burnout is even more staggering in low-income schools, and we think it is absolutely critical to raise scholarship funds to ensure that those in greatest need of our programs are able to participate.”

According to Breathe for Change, the $200,000 it is seeking to raise will fund scholarship for 150 teachers and 25 schools.

The initial goal of $25,000 was surpassed in two days when Breathe for Change accumulated more than $68,000 from more than 200 backers. Perks include T-shirts and care packages.
