Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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

Middle school students are growing rapidly and face long school days filled with challenging classes and extracurricular activities. Often, the time between breakfast and lunch is several hours, and many students don’t have access to nutritious snacks to keep their energy and focus up. Without proper fuel, students can feel tired, distracted, and less able to concentrate, which affects their learning and overall performance.

Providing snacks helps bridge that gap by giving students the nourishment they need to stay alert, participate actively, and succeed academically.

Your donation supports not just their bodies but also their confidence and motivation to keep pushing through the school day.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
