My Project

Our Pre-K learners come to school each day full of energy, curiosity, and love for learning. For many of them, school is not only a place to grow academically, but also where they receive consistent nourishment and care. To keep their little bodies fueled and their big hearts motivated, we are asking for help to stock our classroom with individually packaged fruit snacks.

These fruit snacks will serve two important purposes: a quick, healthy snack during the day and a fun reward for positive behavior.

Whether it's for sharing with a friend, showing kindness, or mastering a new skill, these tasty treats will bring smiles and encouragement to our youngest students.

Your support helps us build a joyful, nurturing classroom where kids feel seen, celebrated, and ready to thrive!
