Water Is the Most Important Nutrient

Help me give my students water filters so they can stay hydrated throughout the day.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Jacobson's classroom raised $215

This project is fully funded

My Project

We live in Florida, where it is vitally important to stay hydrated because it is so hot all of the time. I am fortunate that as a Family and Consumer Science teacher, I have three water dispensers in the refrigerators we use for our cooking labs.

My students enjoy the fact that I have filtered water and cups for them to enjoy a cold drink on a hot day.

Your generous donation will provide the water filters for my culinary students to be able to stay healthy and hydrated throughout the day. You are also helping to develop healthy habits from a young age.
