Help me give my students a freezer for the school pantry, to allow for frozen meats and vegetables that our students who suffer food insecurities really need.
The food pantry needs a chest freezer. Many of our students suffer from food insecurities. Proper nutrition is vital in order for students to achieve academically. A chest freezer would allow us to store frozen foods and vegetables that the students could take home to help themselves and their families.
The goal of this project is to have a freezer where I can store frozen food in the school pantry which will be utilized by the students.
This will be a chance to offer a greater variety of foods to our students.
My students are special because they often come from homes where food insecurity is a real issue. My students need the opportunity to have a wide variety of foods so that they can grow physically and mentally.
More than three‑quarters of 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
