Snacks R US 6.0

Help me give my students these snacks/food to help them get through the day.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Houston's classroom raised $1,026

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am ordering these snacks to help ease the financial strain on parents to provide snacks for their children. I work at a Title 1 school and a lot of my parents can't afford to purchase snacks for the class so I ask for your assistance in giving my students snacks. For some of my students, this may be the last bit of food they get for the day. For others, it gives them the energy or motivation to keep going throughout the day. We have lunch early so by the afternoon, students are hungry again.
