My Project
This project aims to support the mental and physical health of third-grade students by providing nutritious snacks and juice boxes in the classroom. Research shows that a well-fed brain is crucial for effective learning; thus, ensuring that students are not hungry during class will help them concentrate better and engage fully in their education.
By implementing this initiative, I can create an environment where students can focus on their studies without the distraction of hunger.
In addition to snacks, I can offer food packages for students to take home over the weekend for those who need it, ensuring they have enough nourishment until they return to school. This support will help alleviate food insecurity and foster a sense of stability and well-being, allowing our students to thrive both academically and socially.
With your support, I can promote healthier habits and empower my students to be the best learners they can be, equipping them with the tools they need to succeed in and out of the classroom.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
