Snack Time

Help me give my students some yummy snacks for when they are hungry.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. VanKampen's classroom raised $220

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am asking for some snacks for my classroom. I am an academic support teacher and see kids at all times of the day.

I often had kids telling me they were hungry or asking me if I had any food.

I often gave out my own lunch or snacks from my personal stash. I hated telling them no. They are offered breakfast but sometimes have to wait a long time for lunch.

The variety of snacks will be kept in a special place in my room for kids to have access to. I can't wait for them to be able to have a snack when they are hungry.
