Help me give my students healthy snacks to power their active and creative minds.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Holmquist's classroom raised $500

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

By offering nutritious snacks during the day, we're ensuring that students have the fuel they need to stay focused, energized, and ready to learn. Many have limited access to food at home and snacks are the most requested item from my students.

With your support, we're not just providing snacks; we're empowering our students to succeed academically and beyond.

Together, we're making a tangible difference, one bite at a time.

My students are incredibly hardworking and full of life. They enjoy pushing themselves academically and also being silly teenagers. They deserve to have healthy snack options available to them to fuel their success in and out of the classroom.
