Our Story
​The Teacher Care Club was founded on a deep understanding of the daily challenges educators face. Local fourth-grade teacher and founder Sara Toppe has experienced firsthand the exhaustion, burnout, and emotional toll that come with the profession. Teaching is more than just a job—it’s a calling, a labor of love.
Yet too often, teachers pour everything into their students while neglecting their own well-being.
Sara started The Teacher Care Club because she believes that when teachers feel valued, supported, and connected, they can continue doing what they love without sacrificing their mental or physical health. She wanted to create a space where educators could come together, recharge, and feel truly appreciated—not just with words, but with meaningful, tangible support.
"When we take care of our teachers, we take care of our future. A supported teacher creates a thriving classroom, and a thriving classroom shapes the world." - Sara, Founder & CCSD teacher
