Brain Food for My Students

My Project

The healthy snacks will provide my students with energy for the school day. Most students come from low-income families where they are not able to bring in their own snacks. When a child is hungry, it is difficult for them to focus on work. These snacks will satisfy their hunger and allow them to work productively during the school day.

The students and I greatly appreciate any donations that are made to our classroom and thank you for your continued support.

It means alot to students to be able to have a snack during the day.
