Keep Students Happy and Healthy!

Help me give my students snacks, a water cooler, and reusable water bottles to keep them nourished throughout the school year!

My Project

We are currently lacking the resources needed to provide filtered drinking water to our students. Additionally, many of my students do not have access to snacks or their own water bottles. Children learn best when they have access to an environment that feels comfortable, which cannot be fully provide if they are hungry and thirsty!

Having a water cooler, as well as snacks, would allow me to provide my class with full stomachs and cool, clean water throughout the school day!

Providing these resources will help each student to avoid hunger and stay hydrated at school every day. Please consider helping my students to feel nourished and comfortable in our classroom this year! Thank you!
