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
This DonorsChoose has been written to ask for support in providing snacks for our students to enhance their focus and concentration during the school day. As an educator, I witness firsthand the impact hunger has on a student's ability to learn effectively. By offering nutritious snacks such as granola bars, fresh fruit substitutes, and protein-rich items, we aim to address immediate hunger pangs and ensure that our students have the sustained energy needed for cognitive function. These specific items are rich in nutrients that can stabilize blood sugar levels, boost mental alertness, and alleviate the distractions caused by hunger, thereby enabling our students to engage more actively in their lessons.
Our primary goal with this project is to create an environment conducive to learning, where students can thrive academically without the impediment of hunger.
By providing accessible and nutritious snacks, we hope to empower our students to focus on their studies, participate actively in classroom activities, and ultimately achieve their academic potential. Our students come from diverse backgrounds, and their resilience, determination, and eagerness to learn despite facing various challenges make them truly exceptional. By addressing their basic needs, a more equitable and supportive learning environment that nurtures their growth and success can be attained.
More than half of students from low‑income households
