Got Milk??

Help me give my students a refrigerator for the chance to drink milk anytime of the day. This year we are so lucky to have free breakfast, but sometimes we have leftover milk and I hate to see it wasted.

My Students

My students attend school in a small district that stands behind traditions and a small community that comes together in good times and bad. They don't get the benefits of bigger schools like a variety of electives. They also don't get the technology other districts have because the funding just isn't there. Although they lack the benefits of bigger schools, they understand how there are no excuses once they leave here and continue their education. They fight hard in class, in their sports, and in all extracurricular activities. These students are special to me because they never stop believing they are the best and nothing will get in their way.

My Project

I firmly believe that if a child is hungry they are not able to learn. This year our students were blessed and given free breakfast and lunch. I make it a point to grab a breakfast for all of my students so that they don't have to worry about being embarrassed for grabbing a bag of "free" food. The problem is sometimes I have leftover milk that needs to be refrigerated and not wasted. Please help me save and not waste any of the food or drinks donated to my students. Thank you so much for helping out!!
