Amir SohailSOUTHAMPTON, Pa., Aug. 20, 2026 (ZM NEWSWIRE) — Quaint Oak Bank is proud to support students at Roosevelt Elementary School through a Gardener Sponsorship with Greener Partners, which will help provide hands-on garden education opportunities for local students as part of the nonprofit organization’s Healthy Schools Project.
Supporting Student Education Through School Gardens
The sponsorship will fund an eight-week garden program at Roosevelt Elementary School in Philadelphia, giving students the opportunity to participate in outdoor learning experiences focused on gardening, nutrition, and food education. Through the Healthy Schools Project, students will participate in STEM-based garden education that includes discovery-driven lessons on planting, harvesting, seasonal eating, and nutrition. The program gives students hands-on opportunities to grow and prepare fresh produce while connecting classroom learning.
“We are so excited to partner with Quaint Oak Bank as we continue to improve our community garden,” said Eileen Lynn, STEM Teacher at Roosevelt Elementary School in Philadelphia. “Partnerships like this help create meaningful learning experiences outside of the traditional classroom. Through our garden program, students develop a deeper understanding of where food comes from while building skills in science, teamwork, and environmental stewardship. We’re grateful for Quaint Oak Bank’s support in making these opportunities available to our students.”
