No Child Should Ever Have to Be Thirsty!

Help me give my students some water and a place to sit while having their afternoon snack! Many of the children do not bring snacks or a drink and they are very hungry and thirsty at snack time.

My Project

Many of the children do not a drink and they are very thirsty at snack time. They get very sad when they see the other children having something to drink and they do not have anything. No child should ever have to be thirsty! It breaks my heart to see children with nothing to drink, and I try my best to have crackers and pretzels at all times in the classroom. You can make it possible to have drinks in the classroom, so no child will be thirsty! We would also love to have a nice comfy place to sit while in our meeting area! Thank you for reading our proposal.
