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

My amazing 6th graders are bright, energetic, and eager to learn, but sometimes, the school day can be long and their energy levels dip, especially in the afternoon. A little snack can make a big difference in their focus and engagement. That's why I'm hoping to provide them with a variety of snacks to keep them fueled throughout the day.

This project will provide a much-needed boost for my students.

I'm requesting a mix of healthy and fun snacks, including variety packs of chips, cookies, and fruit snacks. These individually packaged snacks will be perfect for a quick pick-me-up during class or after school activities. Having these snacks on hand will not only improve their concentration but also create a more positive and supportive learning environment.

Specifically, I'm requesting donations to purchase variety packs of popular snacks like Oreos, Chips Ahoy, Sour Patch Kids, and Nutter Butters, as well as a larger assortment of schoolhouse snacks. I'm also hoping to include some spicy options for those who enjoy a little kick. Your generous donation will directly impact my students' ability to learn and thrive. Thank you for supporting my 6th graders!
