SHAPE America – Society of Health and Physical Educators and Booster have announced a new partnership to jointly operate and promote health.moves.minds.®, a fundraising program launched by SHAPE America in 2019. This program helps schools raise essential funds for resources that improve students’ physical and mental health, while incorporating lessons on kindness, respect, and the importance of physical activity.

  • Learn about school wide engagement with health.moves.minds. with the events like Kindness Across the Commonwealth and more!
Also learn exciting updates from Booster:
What Does This Mean for Our Schools?**
– **Enhanced Fundraising Opportunities:** With Booster’s extensive experience in school fundraising, this partnership will bring more funds to more schools. Schools will receive at least 50% of the funds raised, with an additional percentage going back to health and physical education teachers in the form of a Gopher gift card to support health and wellness in their school.
– **Support for Teachers and Students:** The health.moves.minds. program has already positively impacted students nationwide, helping them develop critical life skills, improve mental health, and enhance overall well-being. This partnership will allow us to continue this important work on a larger scale.
– **Increased Resources:** With the support of Booster and Gopher, more schools will have access to much-needed equipment and resources, ensuring that physical education and health programs are well-funded and equipped to meet the needs of students.
