My Project

Snacks can boost morale and create a sense of camaraderie among students, fostering a supportive and positive environment. Additionally, snacks can serve as a simple way to show appreciation for the dedication and hard work of volunteers.

Just like pencils, which are essential tools for education and communication, snacks are essential for fueling the body and mind during throughout the instructional day.

Due to an early lunch, students are hungry and wanting a snack by mid day. These snacks will help them continue through the day and perform to the best of their ability.
