Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our school Snack Support Initiative is a community-driven project designed to provide snacks to students attending school in low-income areas of Camden. Many children in this community face food insecurity, which affects their concentration, energy levels, academic performance, and overall well-being. This project ensures that students have access to snacks during the school day so they can stay focused, engaged, and ready to learn.

This school Snack Support Initiative is a simple yet powerful program that addresses a critical barrier to learning—hunger.

With donor support, this project will ensure that no child in Camden has to struggle through the school day hungry.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.

More than a third of students from low‑income households
