My Project

I love my students for their resilience, curiosity, and the way they show up each day ready to try—even when things are hard. They support one another, celebrate small wins, and bring so much heart into our classroom.

Providing snacks ensures they can focus, stay energized, and fully engage in learning without the distraction of hunger.

When their basic needs are met, they are more confident, participate more, and are able to do their very best work each day.

These resources will also help reduce behavior struggles that can come from being hungry, allowing for a calmer and more productive learning environment. Most importantly, it shows students that they are cared for, valued, and supported both inside and outside the classroom.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
