My Project

Many students may come to school without having had a nutritious breakfast or lunch, impacting their ability to focus and learn. These donated snacks can provide essential nutrients, such as proteins, vitamins, and carbohydrates, helping to sustain their energy levels throughout the day.

Some students may come from families facing financial challenges, making it difficult for them to afford regular meals.

By having these snacks I will be able to provide my students with the opportunity to have meals available to them if they become hungry.

Your donations to my students will be greatly appreciated.
