Fuel Learning and Creativity

Help me give my students snacks to fuel their learning and play doh to fuel their creativity!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Madigan's classroom raised $235

This project is fully funded

My Project

Please help us refill our snack supply and our play doh supply!

We’ve been lucky to receive snack donations in the past, but it has come the time where we need to refill our supply!

We are at a Title I school, where most of the population is lower income, which means that most of my students are not able to bring in their own snacks every day. We have a late lunch time, which means that we have snack time in the morning because students have to wait a long time between breakfast and lunch. Donations to purchase more snacks would be greatly appreciated! This would ensure that no student would go hungry and that their brain power would be fully fueled!

We would also greatly appreciate donations to purchase more play doh and play doh tools! My students love using play doh right when they come in in the morning and during quiet calm down breaks. Unfortunately, most of ours has disappeared from the wear and tear of the school year, so we need to refill our supply.

Any help would mean the world to my students!
