My Project

I run the food pantry. Many of the students would like to use the soups when they are hungry but there is no microwave, no spoons and no bowls that they can utilize. We need these items so that our students who suffer from food insecurities can have warm foods.

The ability to use a microwave and have bowls with spoons would mean that students who might not eat that day would have the chance to get nutrition from our pantry that they can eat right there.

Thank you so much!
