Feed My Belly So I Can Feed My Mind

Help me give my students snacks and drinks to help to curb their hunger during the day.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Charlene Jones's classroom raised $225

This project is fully funded

My Project

It is so important that my students have a little pick-me-up when they need it after the gym. If I keep some snacks and drinks, they will not be hungry during the day and can focus on a class instead of their hunger. A simple bag of chips, Gatorade, and granola bars can change a whole day.

I am so excited to be able to give these snacks to them during COVID-19.

We cannot use the water fountains so I need to have drinks on hand like water and Gatorade. I will keep snacks and have them for whoever needs them. I am grateful to be able to help them out with this small gesture. So many kids will benefit from this project.
