Help me give my students some food for when they are hungry because they have not eaten breakfast.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. McVay's classroom raised $249

My Project
This year schools have started to charge for school meals again. This means that some of my students are no longer eating breakfast at school before they come to class. I have many students in my class who cannot afford to buy breakfast at school and they often tell me they are hungry.
In our Title I school, these students work hard, but it is difficult to concentrate on an empty stomach.
Educators will understand the phrase, "Maslow before Bloom," meaning that we must meet a child's basic human needs before they can learn effectively.
We would be most grateful for your help with this project.
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
