Help me give my students a microwave for easy access to warm their food when they need it.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ochoa's classroom raised $180

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students will have access to a microwave to heat up their food. They will not be hungry and unable to learn. If my students are hungry they will have food on their mind and have a hard time focusing on learning.

My students will have easy access to warm up their food.

Students have no where to warm up food for lunch. This microwave would help them eat a nice warm meal from home. Students like having a microwave for lunch and snacks throughout the day.
