Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

I service an all boys school in the Atlanta School System. The students are challenged, but the are striving to be the best they can be.

While soaring like an eagle, they stay on task, the show self control, and they are reliable.

My Project

The young men at our school live in a low-income community, they often don't have the basic necessities, like food, clothing, and shelter.

We feed them when they get to school, and sometimes, they are hungry again by the end of the day., and we feed them again.

The only time some of these kids eat is during breakfast or lunch.

These resources ( spaghetti, granola bar, and chips) will help sustain them throughout the day. we will issue these snacks only as needed or as an incentive.
