Fueling Our Eagles: Snacks for Success

Help me give my students the tools they need to succeed during the season.

Charlotte, NC Grades 9-12

My Project

I love how hardworking, determined, and supportive my students are. They continue to push themselves in the classroom, on the basketball court, and in their everyday lives. As student-athletes, they spend long hours at school, practicing, traveling, and competing, which makes having access to snacks especially important. The snacks will help provide them with energy after school and during practices while also giving them something available in our team trailer when they need it. Having these resources will help students stay focused, energized, and ready to learn and compete. Most importantly, this project shows our students that their community believes in them and wants to support their success.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
