My Project
These donations will help provide much-needed snacks to low-income students in our urban after-school program. Many of our students come to us hungry, which makes it hard to concentrate. A healthy snack gives them the fuel they need to feel cared for, stay focused, and engage in homework and academic activities. Having a snack also boosts their mood and excitement, creating a positive environment where they feel supported. With your help, we can turn after-school time into a space for growth, learning, and success—starting with something as simple as a snack!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
