Help me give my students a year’s worth of snacks—like crackers, breakfast drinks, popcorn, and protein sticks—so they can stay focused, feel supported, and learn without the distraction of hunger.

My Project
Many of my students come to school hungry and rely on what we provide in the classroom to make it through the day. I work in a very low-income school where food insecurity is a real and daily challenge. This project will provide essential snacks—like Cheez-Its, Ritz crackers, Skinny Pop, Slim Jims, and Carnation breakfast drinks—to help students stay focused and energized. When basic needs like hunger are met, students can engage, learn, and thrive. Your support will help create a classroom where every child feels cared for, valued, and ready to succeed.
More than half of students from low‑income households
