My Project

Our students literally stay at school all day because they enjoy after school activities, competing and being around their friends. They are growing adolescents who need to stay fueled to participate in after school activities. In addition, our lunch is during the last period of the day and I know our students will need a little energy boost to get them through the day.

Please help my students have healthy and satiating snacks to eat during the school day, track practices and our meets.

Our competitions run for long hours and our students need snacks to keep them energized and focused for their events.

These snacks are light and provide energy for our students to run efficiently. Many students stay in school from 8 am to 6 pm and are generally hungry in the afternoon and evening hours. Your help will give our athletes healthy and tasty snacks to keep them energized during extra-curricular activities.
