Help me give my students healthy snacks. It is heart breaking to see a child come to school with an empty backpack.

My Students
My students are eager, excited, and love to explore. They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Our school is nestled in the heart of Brooklyn, East New York.
Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly.
We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year.
My Project
My Scholars needs healthy snacks for school. All students should have healthy delicious snacks so that they can learn and focus better in class. Sometimes some kids come with empty backpacks. Also, some might have very sugary or salty snacks. The students will be grateful for the juices too. These snacks will be given at snack time. I will use them as motivational rewards too. I will introduce these healthy snack choices to them and the importance to know what you are eating. I want parents to not worry about sending snacks every day.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
