Help me give my students some needed snacks to give them the energy they need to focus.

This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
I am currently working on a project to provide essential snacks for my students. As a Title I school, many of my students live below the poverty line, and these snacks will make a significant difference in their learning. By fueling their bodies, I can help them maintain the energy and focus necessary for their academic success.
My goal for this project is to ensure that every student has access to snacks throughout the day.
This initiative not only addresses their physical needs but also promotes a more conducive learning environment.
What makes my students special is their resilience and enthusiasm for learning, even in challenging circumstances. I believe that by meeting their basic needs, I can empower them to reach their fullest potential.
Nearly all 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
