My Project

Support Future Entrepreneurs: Help Fund Snacks for Our Financial Literacy Class Business Project

I’m reaching out to ask for your support in helping my middle school financial literacy students kick off an exciting, real-world learning project.

Our goal is to build a small, student-run business that not only teaches core money management skills but also empowers students to fund a meaningful experience—their 8th-grade prom.

To get started, we’re in need of snacks and drinks to stock a student-led concession stand. With these initial supplies, students will learn how to:

• Budget and manage inventory

• Set prices and market a product

• Track sales and expenses

• Reinvest profits

• Work collaboratively in business roles

• Save and plan long-term for their own event

Your donation will give them the opportunity to apply what they’re learning in class to the real world. Most importantly, they’ll gain confidence, financial independence, and pride in earning something meaningful through teamwork and entrepreneurship.

Every snack sold is more than just a treat—it’s a lesson in leadership and a step toward a prom they can proudly say they earned.

Thank you for believing in our students and helping turn this vision into reality.
