My Project
Hello donors I teach High School scholars (English Language Learners) in a low-income/high-poverty school district. My scholars come to school/class everyday thirsty due to the high temps of the weather, thirsty from playing sports in the gym or just thirsty from having to walk all day every day to class whether its inside or outside. I'm requesting water to help increase my scholars overall water consumption, maintain hydration to stay cool and to increase energy while at school. Providing access to drinking water will give my scholars a healthy alternative to sugar-sweetened beverages.
Our brains depend on proper hydration to function optimally, this is why drinking water is important in our classroom.
My scholars must make sure they are getting lots of water in order to stay focused and to be prepared to learn. Having a water bottle within reach in our own classroom will encourage my scholars to drink more water. This is why I need your help. I hope you understand the many reasons water is needed in school. Thanks in advance for providing my student with water to keep their brains and energy strong and to also keep them hydrated and cool.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
