My Project
I teach a group of vibrant, curious, and hardworking students in a special education setting. Some of them might have unique sensory and dietary needs, and our classroom often functions as a safe space where they spend the majority of their day. Having a mini fridge in the classroom will allow us to store cold water, snacks. This small appliance will make a big difference in keeping our students comfortable, focused, and ready to learn. The classroom teachers would appreciate and be grateful for having a fridge in the classroom.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
