My Project

Your donation will give our students a variety of snacks to share throughout the semester. The snacks will be given out by our school climate advocates, who regularly meet with students and find that students come to school without snacks and feel hungry throughout the day. These small snacks will help students get their stamina back to be able to continue rigorous learning through the day. We look forward to sharing these snacks with the students as we have conversations with them about planning their futures and planning. We can all empathize with that feeling of not being able to concentrate because of hunger, thank you for your support!
