My Project

Many of our students come from a lower economic background. Many live on or near the Reservation and travel a distance to show up for their educational experience. Many are missing not only supplies but a full belly upon arrival to our campus. Our purpose to request assistance is to provide unmet needs to assist them in getting the most from their educational experience.

My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they have the educational tools and nourishment needed to focus.

Please help us get them the energy they need to focus on their educational activities. Any assistance you provide would be appreciated!
