Entrepreneurs Eating While Perfecting Their Craft

Help me give my students a Healthy Snacks Care Package to eat while they listen and engage in conversation with our guest speakers.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Holden's classroom raised $165

This project is fully funded

My Project

I teach an entrepreneurship course. We have guest speakers often. These wonderful angels come and share entrepreneurship advice and helpful tips with our future entrepreneurs. We call these our munch and learn sessions.

Please bless my future entrepreneurs with a Healthy Snacks Care Package to eat on days we have guest speakers.

I've been furnishing snacks for the scholars to munch as they learn. The cost of everything is rising and I do not want to discontinue the munch and learn sessions but it is beginning to put a strain on me. We've been having munch and learn sessions at least once a week for each of the entrepreneurship classes. If someone would please help my future entrepreneurs and me to continue our munch and learn sessions we would be forever grateful.
