This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are at an age where they are becoming more independent. This includes being respobsible for finding their own meals.

We need lunch and snack kits to take home during breaks and weekends.

By having ready to eat quick meals the middle school students can load up a backpack for a long weekend. The soups, mac and cheese, cheese and crackers and other snacks will help them come to school on a Monday morning prepared to learn. They can also provide an emergency food shelf in our classroom for anyone who needs it.
