My Project

I am a teacher of students in a special education high school. The students in my class help run the school wide cafe. They stock and sell items from a snack cart, make and sell iced coffee and cook meals for the entire school. This is all very hard to do considering the lack of cooking supplies we have to work with.

Students in my class would be so grateful to have new cooking supplies to help them create the hundreds of meals they serve a week.

Students would be able to use the supplies to not only make meals in school, but also enhance their daily living skills and become more independent on making meals for themselves.
