My Project

We are in the process of opening a school free store for students. Students will be able to go in and shop for things their families may need. We would like to try and have full shelves with a variety of products like food and socks so it feels like a real store when students shop.

Have you ever tried to concentrate when you were worried about what you were going to make for dinner?

Imagine that worry as a kid, but because you don't know when you will have food at home. For too many children in our school, this is a reality that we have the chance to change with your help.
