"Hello. I teach the most wonderful students in the world. My students all have multiple disabilities and love going to school. They make each day a precious gift and I'm so fortunate to be their teacher. These students live in a poverty stricken area on top of all the mental and physical challenges they face daily. We all (including myself) take so much for granted (talking, walking, writing, etc.). These students take nothing for granted and really could use your help. My students really need to understand healthy foods and nutrition. I have 4 students who are unable to speak and 3 that are also unable to walk. They so desperately want to be independent one day and hope that they can have additional tools to work on life skills. My students are so much more intelligent then what they are given credit for by some. These students are my heroes and I'll do whatever I can to help them make their dreams a reality.

My students really need some hands-on learning materials to enable them to comprehend the food pyramid and nutrition. They are extremely excited about this possible opportunity and really hope that someone is willing to fund this project for them. You will never know the impact that you can make on these students. Something as simple as learning what is healthy to eat can be so empowering to someone that doesn't have those skills and is transitioning to another part of their life in a couple of years. If you can help at all, then please give to these students.

My students need the Great Pyramid Resource Kit with cover. These items will enable the students to actually hold "fake" food and place it on the pyramid. This will enable them to visualize what they are doing and have it make sense to them.

Your help will ensure that my students will make good food choice as they go into their adult life. I always assure them that people do care and there is still a lot of good in the world. Please help me show this to them by funding this project. Thanks for reviewing this project and best wishes for the future
