My Project
My students are amazing and are learning to care for others. We have been talking about ways that students can impart change within their communities and my students see that some of their peers are experiencing food insecurity. They want to start doing community service to help the families of our school community. The student want to make sure that students who are hungry in our school can have food to take from a pantry that they will create.
My project is to request shelf stable food for a school food pantry.
Students have been learning about what food would be good to keep in a pantry that does not go bad quickly. My students will be in charge of the packages, sorting the food, organizing the pantry and advertising that the food will be available to all students in the school community who would like a meal due to the hunger that they are experiencing.
My students are requesting cereal, canned protein like fish and meat, pasta, and oatmeal. Thank you so very much for supporting this project.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
