This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
As an educator in an urban, high-poverty district, funding and opportunities for my scholars are limited. Although they face challenges each day, both in and out of the classroom, I see their potential and will do whatever it takes to inspire, teach, and help my students thrive.
My scholars are creative, hopeful, and deserve only the very best education and experiences.
Many students in my classroom want to learn and are working towards a better "them" each and every day. We work on academics, but also engage in social and emotional learning, as well as life skills and interactions. I am passionate about watching my kids succeed and work tirelessly day in and out to give them the confidence and knowledge they need to become the best version of themselves.
I know that with DonorsChoose.org, I will be able to continue to make our classroom a learning oasis.
My Project
Working in a high-poverty, low income area makes it difficult for students to always receive 3 meals per day. When students come into school late, they unfortunately have not had breakfast.
I want to be able to give them breakfast or a snack in the classroom if they are hungry.
No one can work and learn on an empty stomach and I want to make sure I can provide them with any resource necessary, including food. I want my students to be fueled and ready to learn each and every day! These snacks and breakfast bars and cereal will keep them full and their needs met so they can do their best!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
