Recently we’ve seen how communities can come together to support each other! I’m hoping for the same! It recently came to my attention that the snack bin in my child’s classroom is frequently empty! Parents are asked to provide a snack for 16 students one day a month if they can do so. It’s been a hard year on us all and understandably not all are able to do so! This wonderful teacher has been buying snack out of her own money for her kids because that’s what they are... her kids!
As a teacher, I’ve bought snack for my kids! I’ve been there- when your students are hungry you buy the snacks! It’s what you do because any child in your classroom is your kid! They don’t teach you that at Geneseo, but the good ones know you do everything in your power to make your kids feel safe and loved! These students have been treated like her family since before school started! She consistently goes above and beyond for her kids!
So if you stuck with me this long and you’d like to thank a teacher and feed first grade tummies that get hungry from all the hard work they do- I’m trying to gather up enough snacks for a whole month for her! LET’S FILL THE SNACK BIN!
How can you help? Snacks need to be individually wrapped and store bought! If you can provide 16 perfect! If you can provide 5 perfect!!
Donations of snack if you’re local and want to help out can be dropped off at our house or Youngman Farms store- comment/message for address! If you’re not local comment or message and I will send you my Venmo and will send photos of the snack purchased with your contribution! I’ll also be including a card with everyone’s name when the snack are dropped off! You can also help by sharing this post if you are unable to contribute a snack! Thank you all in advance!!! 💙💙
