Fueling Minds: Healthy Snacks for Hungry Learners!

Help me give my students yummy snacks to fuel their bodies and minds!

My Project

In my speech classroom, students come ready to learn, explore, and grow. However, their rumbling stomachs can be a major obstacle to their success. Many of our students come from low-income families, and while they get meals at school, they often need extra snacks throughout the day to stay focused and engaged. A simple, healthy snack can make a world of difference in their ability to concentrate and participate in learning.

A little snack can go a long way!

With your support, I can provide yummy and nutritious snacks to keep my students energized. These snacks will help them stay full and give them the fuel they need to thrive. Thank you for supporting my classroom and helping me build a stronger, healthier classroom community.
