Help me give my students snacks for lunch and after school! Happy tummies & Happy times!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Mena's classroom raised $190
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
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
There are absolutely many great examples I could give of the amazingness of my students! Many are involved in after-school activities such as Bilingual Club, Peer tutoring, After school show rehearsals, Community School Service, Honor Society, and more.
Many of my students come from low-income families.
Having a school snack and options on what to snack on will make a difference in their minds and hearts. Many of my children are incoming students who are learning English.
A language barrier is never a reason why a student shouldn't have any snacks to eat.
I know the kids will be beyond grateful, beyond motivated, and filled with gratitude that there are humans in this world who have helped this cause.
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
