My Project

My social studies classroom consists of 108 students. Providing snacks for these students is crucial to their academic success. Many of these students come from impoverished backgrounds and cannot afford to bring snacks consistently, leaving them hungry and unable to focus throughout the day. With lunch not until 1pm, these students struggle to keep up with their academics due to hunger. By providing snacks, we can ensure that these students have the energy and focus they need to excel in their studies. Your support in funding for snacks will not only alleviate hunger among these students but also pave the way for a brighter educational future. Let's come together to create a positive impact on these students' lives and empower them to reach their full potential.
