Help me give my students snacks and drinks to help them throughout the day into after school tutoring. The students need snacks and drinks because they do not eat at all at home due lack of parent support.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dickens's classroom raised $486
This project is fully funded
My Project
Essential needs for my students will offer them snacks and drinks that students do not get at home. Many of my students come from broken homes; single family homes where the parent works during the time their child is home.
My students go home and don't eat dinner or breakfast in many cases.
The requested snacks of chips, jerky and candy will help give my students something to get them through the day. The drinks as well will keep them hydrated as many don't bring water with them to school and we only have the water fountains that fill bottles, not that you can drink from.
I hope you can fund this project to give my inner city middle school students some food and drinks to help get them through the school day without being hungry or thirsty.
More than half of 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
