Help me give my students healthy snacks to fight food insecurity and help them grow!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Elisa's classroom raised $319
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
This project will help us make sure that every child in our class has access to healthy snacks. Children cannot learn when they are hungry, but unfortunately many children in our community experience food insecurity.
As New Yorkers struggle with rising costs for food and other necessities, food insecurity rates in the city remain near historic highs.
Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, our community was facing a profound hunger crisis, but the situation is now worsening, with one in every four children experiencing food insecurity. Please help our children grow healthy bodies and minds with a donation towards healthy snacks.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
