Quench My Thirst!!

Help me give my students beverages to help quench their thirst and get them through the remainder of this school year. Our students are limited to milk as a beverage with their school lunch.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stewart's classroom raised $304

This project is fully funded

My Project

Funding this project will assist us in providing our students with options to replenishing their nutrients throughout the school days and especially the through the remaining days in this school year.

Providing beverages for my students will help quench my students' thirst and get them through the long winter days.

Our students are limited to milk as a beverage with their school lunch, and many of them are lactose intolerant or don't prefer milk.

These beverages will help our students stay hydrated and support in the progression of their academic success towards graduation.

Thank you in advance for your support of our students.
