Snack Filled New Year Fresh Start!

Help me give my students a snack filled exciting start to the new school year!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Charmaine Edwards's classroom raised $265

My Project

Help me provide yummy snacks and pencil cases to help the start of our school year. Some of my amazing students are currently experiencing housing insecurity and many other problems that make it very difficult to focus on school work. They have food insecurities. While school provides them with free breakfast and lunch, we all know how hard it can be to focus when we are hungry.

I can only imagine how hard it would be to learn, if I didn't know when I would be able to eat next.

I always have snacks in my room for these students, but unfortunately that adds up! Help me fuel up these hungry bellies so that they can do their best learning every day with snacks like juice, cookies and gold fish.
