FALL 2017 THE NEST NIXA PUBLIC SCHOOLS MAGAZINE 19 to be successful in school. It provides vouchers
for a variety of medical care and has a backpack
program that sends students home on
Fridays with a bag full of food for the weekend.
Annie Zimmerman, director of Care to Learn
Nixa, said she and the planning committee —
who began working out the event’s details in
January — could not have been happier with
the turnout. She’s received positive feedback
from guests and supporters alike.
But the excitement is mostly for the students
who will benefi t, Zimmerman said. The increase
in donations enables Care to Learn Nixa to
serve students better, serve more students
and make the program more convenient for
students.
While some money will go toward piloting
new projects, long-standing projects will get
revamped.
Local band Makenna
& Brock provide the
entertainment for the
event.
