My Project

Our school services a demographic that many times is unable to provide snacks for their children. It has always been our goal to ensure that no child is ever hungry.

Our school had a food pantry that helped our families and children, but due to unforseen circumstances it was unable to remain open.

When a child is hungry they are unable to focus an be successful at completing their school work. It is my goal to ensure that all of the students have a snack available to them while they are at school.
