It's a research-based fact that students need to get their basic needs met before they can learn.
Please help me meet the basic needs of my students, many of whom are economically disadvantaged and/or English Language Learners!
Many of my students need deodorant and lotion, because these are not readily available at home. My students are often hungry and looking for snacks, and this project includes snacks for students with allergies and/or religious restrictions on their eating.
Everyone feels better when they feel clean and are not hungry, and my students are no exception. Thank you for supporting us!
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
