Help Us Put the Food Away

Help me give my students supplies to help with our weekly food activities.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Lopez's classroom raised $211

This project is fully funded

My Project

We love our Food Friday activities. The students love being able to make their own food items based on what they are given any week. We need plates, cups, silverware, aluminum foil, and sandwich bags to help us put our food items in, and on, each week. We need gloves to help when we are handling the food.

You can't always eat with your fingers, especially when you are the one making the food for everyone!

Sometimes we make finger foods that the students can eat with their hands. Usually, we make food that requires utensils, and that can up during a school year. We need gloves to help keep our food safe while in the creation process. We don't always make food, sometimes we make drinks (smoothies, hot chocolate). We need cups to put them in that will hold up to the drink we are putting inside it. Occasionally we make too much, or we want to take it home and share it with our families. That is why we need sandwich bags and aluminum foil, so we can share!
