School Snacks for Seahorses to See them Soar!

Help me give my students a delicious energy boost to help them thrive!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Soriano's classroom raised $534

My Students

The school is situated in a rural area in the westernmost part of O'ahu, Hawaii. Our children face daily challenges and desperately need our support and care. We serve the highest population of students who are in poverty and lack reliable transportation.

I believe education is a priority and it should not be hindered for those that come from low-socioeconomic neighborhoods.

For most of them, it is difficult to get the basic school supplies that are needed to learn. Please join me in supporting our students that need a leg up in our society.

My Project

I am requesting a variety of energizing school snacks to help my Seahorses soar.

Our students are back in school and they need a happy boost of delicious snacks to help them make it through the long school day.

Our elementary school students need to keep their energy up and many of them cannot afford to bring extra snacks to school these days. I want to provide snacks to them so they can be energized and thrive in their learning all day long. Being back on campus after a year of remote/distance learning is tough on everyone, but most of all on my students.

Providing snacks makes the difference between students learning and being successful or not being successful. It is a simple request that will make a huge impact on my students. They will be able to focus and keep their stamina up for the entire day!
