To Live Well, Is to Eat Well

Help me give my students healthy snacks to fuel their day of academic learning!

My Project

I am requesting a variety of individually wrapped snacks, such as cheese crackers, breakfast bars, and fruit snacks for my fourth and fifth graders.

Hunger can distract students from learning, but having a snack for everyone will help keep my students focused.

Snacks can help encourage concentration and re-energize our tired students. It always brings a big smile to their faces when they receive snacks. Some students don't have snacks at home and these snacks will be sent home with them, too. These snacks will help me make sure my students are always fueled up and ready to learn!
