Healthy Snacks for Creative Minds

Help me give my students healthy snacks to support their learning in class.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Sawyer's classroom raised $391

My Project

Please help me keep my 8th grade students fed and happy this school year! My students often come to class on an empty stomach. This can prevent them from achieving their full potential, because nobody can focus well when they are hungry.

My students do their best creative work in class when they are fed and their critical needs are met.

These snacks help foster a positive learning environment for my students, and students look forward to coming to class when they know they will get their choice of healthy snack that day.

Ms. Sawyer PS Intermediate School 109 Glenwood Academy Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
