  • "Brain Boost Bites: Snack Time, Anytime!"

    Funded Dec 2, 2024

    Thanks to your incredible generosity, my high school history students now enjoy healthy snacks during our class breaks, keeping their energy up and their minds sharp. When the Boost Bites first arrived, the excitement was contagious—students couldn't believe they'd have access to snacks during the school day. One student even said, "This makes history class the best part of my schedule!"

    These snacks have become a key part of our routine. Before diving into discussions about pivotal moments in history or group projects, students grab a quick bite to recharge. Recently, during a debate about the causes of the Civil Rights Movement, the students used their snack break to re-energize and bring even more thoughtful arguments to the table.

    Looking ahead, we'll tie the Boost Bites into lessons about historical food scarcity and economic struggles, showing how access to resources has shaped history. Your support has not only nourished my students but has also provided inspiration for deeper learning. Thank you for making such an incredible impact!”

  • Snacks Please!

    Funded Nov 8, 2024

    Thanks to your generous donation, our students are now able to enjoy healthy snacks that keep them energized and focused throughout the school day. Just last week, we had a lesson on nutrition, and the students were thrilled to try the new snacks while discussing healthy eating habits. They were so excited to see the variety of options, and it made a big difference in their energy levels and participation. Moving forward, we'll be using these snacks to support learning during long lessons or group activities, helping keep everyone engaged and ready to learn. Your contribution is truly helping us fuel both minds and bodies for success!”

  • We're Cleaning Up!

    Funded Nov 8, 2024

    Thanks to your generous donation, our classroom has transformed into a much cleaner and more organized space, enhancing both learning and teaching. The new cleaning supplies have allowed us to maintain a tidy, hygienic environment, which is crucial for our students' well-being. Just last week, we used the supplies to clean up after an art project, and the students were excited to take responsibility for keeping our space neat. They immediately appreciated the fresh, clean feeling and were more focused and engaged in their next lesson. Moving forward, we'll be able to maintain a healthier space for hands-on learning activities and collaborative projects, supporting both their physical and academic growth. Thank you for helping us create an environment where learning can thrive!”
