Help me give my students healthy snacks to keep them energized throughout the day.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ruiz's classroom raised $176

My Project
The school day can be long. Many of our students need a snack throughout the day. However, they are not always able to bring a snack from home.
These snacks can help keep the kids energized throughout the school day.
It's hard to focus if you are hungry. Somedays, the breakfast or lunch provided just is not enough for the students. Having a snack especially in the afternoon can re-energize a student. This can make a tremendous difference in how focused they are in the afternoon. Students will be much more successful if they are focused.
Nearly all 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
