My Project

Hunger is the classroom is a pressing issue the impacts students' ability to focus, engage, and exel in their education. Many children arrive at school without access to the snacks that provide the necessary energy and nutrition to support a productive day. The primary goal of this program are to address hunger, promote nutritional equity, and support academic success.

By providing daily snacks to students, I aim to reduce hunger-related distractions, improve focus, and enhance classroom participation.

Additionally, this program prioritizes offering healty snacks options to instill lifelong habbits of balanced nutrition, ensuring students are fueled for learning and growth.
