Help me give my students the food they need to fuel their minds!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Delgado's classroom raised $591
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
My students are in sixth grade and are eager to learn and play. Many of my families are low income or live in poverty. My students are excited to come everyday to school because sometimes the only meal they get is from school.
My students' minds are hungry not just for knowledge but also for food to fuel their curiosity.
Food of any sort can change my students' mindset and overall mood in class; as a result, they will perform better if we are able to get them something to eat in their day before, during, or after school.
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
