My Project

Working in a title one school I experience having students who lack access to food at home. Every year I have students who come to school hungry! As we know, it is very difficult for students to learn/concentrate on an empty stomach.

With this project, students would be able to have an extra snack when needed, no student should have to feel hungry in my classroom!

Although my school does provide breakfast and lunch, often the food selections are limited. Sometimes there is not enough of an item for all students. With this project I will be able to provide my students with an extra snack to eliminate them feeling hungry throughout the day!

All donations will help supply my students with fuel for learning! Thanks so much for taking the time to read my project! My students and I are so grateful for all donations!
