My Project

Usually when I create a DonorsChoose ask, it’s for school supplies or furniture or for books that need replacing or updating. This is the first time I’ve felt like I have had to ask for something as basic as food for my students.

In past years, families would often send extra snacks and food for their students but this year, I have noticed more students are telling me that they are hungry.

When we get to go to the school store, students often choose snacks over toys.

Please consider donating to get a variety of snacks for my third graders. These snacks will be offered in the mid morning as we have a late lunch and after school as I tutor and hold set design club.
