My Project

In our classroom we have a food pantry. This pantry is stocked by amazing individuals like you who never want to see a little human struggle. Someone like you who wants little humans to be able to focus on their learning and not their rumbling tummies.

Our students are hungry and when they are hungry they cannot focus on their learning.

In this project there are snack options that will provide the energy and food power to get them to lunch or dinner at home. The US Department of Agriculture will not be funding free breakfast and lunch this school year even though it is the toughest on our families right now. We need all the help we can get.
