My Project

I am reaching out to you with a heartfelt appeal to support my project. This project aims to provide snacks for my students to keep them energized and engaged during the long school day.

As a dedicated school counselor, I witness firsthand the challenges and stresses our students face on a daily basis.

Many come to school without the basic nourishment needed to sustain them throughout the day, hindering their ability to focus and learn. By donating to this project you will help to fuel the future with nourishing snacks.

Mrs. Yates Martin Luther King High School Grades 9-12

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
