Snack Smiles and Learning Miles

Help me give my students snacks ensure our students are fueled for success—both academically and emotionally

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

Our students work hard every day, and having access to snacks helps them stay focused, energized, and ready to learn. We’re requesting a variety of nutritious, classroom-friendly snacks to support our students throughout the school day.

Many of our learners come to school hungry or need a little boost between meals.

By providing snacks like crackers, granola bars, fruit cups, and pretzels, we can help meet their basic needs and create a more supportive, caring environment where every child can thrive.

With your support, we can ensure our students are fueled for success, both academically and emotionally. Thank you for helping us nourish our students' bodies and minds!
