Fueling Success: Snacks for After-School Focus and Engagement

Help me give my students snacks so they can stay after school focused and engaged. Hunger often distracts them, but your donation will keep them energized, motivated, and ready to succeed in their activities.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I’m seeking donations for my DonorsChoose project to provide snacks for my students so they can stay after school without the distraction of hunger. Many of my students are deeply committed to staying engaged in afterschool activities such as tutoring, enrichment programs, and sports, but hunger is often a barrier to their full participation. Without a snack to keep them energized, it’s difficult for them to focus, stay motivated, or participate to their best ability. By providing healthy snacks, you’ll help ensure that they are able to continue learning, collaborating, and growing in a positive and supportive environment after school hours.

Your donation, no matter how small, will make a huge impact on their ability to succeed.

With a snack to refuel, students can stay focused on their academic goals, enhance their skills in extracurricular activities, and feel empowered to give their best effort. Supporting their physical and mental well-being after school is an investment in their future, one that can make a lasting difference in their confidence, growth, and success.

Thank you for considering a donation to this project and for helping to support these amazing students. Your generosity directly contributes to creating an environment where they can thrive, overcome obstacles, and unlock their full potential.
