My Project

Many students rely on school meals as their primary source of nutrition. By providing nourishing snacks during the day, I can help my kindergarten students stay energized, focused, and ready to learn.

It has been reported that schools that offer consistent snack and meal programs report improved attendance and increased engagement especially in younger grades according to the Journal of School Health, 2022.

Snacks also reduce behavior issues caused by hunger and reminds students that they are cared for.

Your support will make a real difference in their school day and their lives. Thank you for helping me nourish young minds, one snack at a time!
