My Project

Access to essential supplies ensures that all students can participate fully in classroom activities, leading to better comprehension and performance.

Nutritious snacks provide the energy students need to stay attentive and engaged throughout the school day.

By providing supplies and snacks, the project helps level the playing field for students from diverse economic backgrounds, reducing disparities and fostering equity in education.

When students know their basic needs will be met at school, they are more likely to attend regularly, reducing absenteeism and its negative impact on learning.

A supportive environment where students' basic needs are met promotes a sense of community and belonging, contributing to better social and emotional development.
