Full Stomach, Full Mind

Help me give my students the gift of a full stomach and mind!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. KIRBY's classroom raised $321

This project is fully funded

My Project

Every child deserves to start their day with a healthy start. We want students to thrive at school and be able to focus solely on learning. Who wants to worry about hunger or being hungry while at school? These snacks, water and juice will allow each and every student to excel.

A full stomach equals a full mind.

Students can achieve anything if they are able to focus 100% of their attention to their academics.

Let's make sure all of our students are set to succeed in the classroom.

Mrs. KIRBY Theodore Lester Elementary School Grades 3-5
