My Students

My students are a great group of students who are filled with a lot of energy. My students are a mixture of Brooklyn natives and recent immigrants to the country. My students are currently is a very difficult situation as schools have closed in NYC for the rest of the school year. My students not only depend on school for their education, connections to friends, but also for food from my food pantry that I run out of the school. Many of my students are contacting me asking for support with food during this crisis.

My Project

Many of my students and their families are really struggling with the basic access to food. Many families are out of work and do not have jobs that will support them during the crisis. Many of these families do not get government assistance nor a stimulus check to support their basic needs. I would like to support students and their families with the basic needs of food. I would like my students to focus on their education and course work rather than having to worry about their next meal with their family.
