Some sitcoms can actually be pretty educational.

Quinta Brunson, the creator of Abbott Elementary, surprised everyone by making a sitcom that reflects the struggles of the average educator in an underserved community.

Now that Abbott is one of the most popular TV shows on the planet, Brunson has the opportunity to fill some of the gaps in our educational system and help out the real-life schoolchildren of Philadelphia. The creator recently announced the launch of the Quinta Brunson Field Trip Fund, which “will raise money to provide free field trips for schools, giving students from underserved communities greater access to out-of-classroom experiences,” according to a press release obtained by The Philadelphia Tribune.

Brunson said, “Going somewhere new shows you that the world is bigger and more exciting than you believe, and it can shape what you come to see as achievable.” This Field Trip aims “to eliminate the costs associated with field trips for more than 117,000 students in Philadelphia’s public schools and will focus on the city’s vast network of museums and landmarks,” according to the release.

Clearly, the creator of Abbott Elementary is just as involved in her community as the character she plays on the show.

And speaking of sitcoms, Twitter always has good recommendations. Today’s funniest involve French fry costumes, scaring a psychologist, and a python.
