My Project

My kiddos love and need a snack time! We have a late lunch with quite a bit of time between breakfast and lunch. It is a time that they can have a little relaxing time and engage with their peers. Most of our students don't have enough funds to bring a snack every day.

We are trying to provide equity for our students that can't bring in a snack.

Having snacks available comforts me because I know my kids will have something to eat. They'll be able to fuel themselves for all the rigorous work we do. I thank you in advance for reading my proposal!
