My Project

Many students arrive at school without the proper nutrition needed to be successful throughout the day. While many receive lunch and breakfast at school, they are missing snacks. Feeling sluggish in the middle of the day can have a negative effect on a student's learning capabilities.

By providing our students with the fuel needed to power their brains during the day, we can help ensure they are learning and ready to take on the world.

While our goals are big so is our mission! We want to ensure each of our students is given the best chance to make a difference in the world as they grow and learn.
