This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
It’s hard for students to focus on learning when they’re hungry, and hunger can take a serious toll on their mental health. Studies show that a lack of nutrition can increase anxiety and lower motivation, making it difficult for students to engage fully in their schoolwork and relationships. In my classroom, many students struggle with this, and it affects their well-being.
By providing nutritious snacks, we can help create a supportive environment where students not only feel better physically but also experience a mental health boost that promotes calm, focus, and emotional stability.
With your contribution, we can reduce one simple barrier that stands in the way of their success. Together, we can ensure that no student has to worry about hunger while learning, giving them the energy and peace of mind they need to thrive academically and emotionally.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
