Feed the People!

Help me give my students snacks during their busy day! Often students come to me for snacks to help sustain them throughout the day.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kea Arakaki-Tohara's classroom raised $480

My Project

My students are bright learners who sometimes just need a little extra energy as they tackle their busy day. Often any student that is on campus (whether I teach them or not) comes to my room to ask for snacks until brunch or lunch.

My students all want to do well, but sometimes they fail to eat at home, may not have enough to eat, or cannot wait until lunch to eat something and they can struggle throughout the day.

We all know that in order to feel successful or ready to take on the day, they may need some extra fuel.

Additional things like pens, stickers, and miniature ducks will be part of our reward system for my students.
