About My Project

When you were in elementary school or middle school, did you ever throw away a snack or two because you were full? Many students in both elementary and middle school throw away snacks after lunch because they may be full, or they may not want to bring it home. On the other hand, there are also people in the community that don't have enough to eat. They go through school with empty stomachs that affect their learning and day-to-day activities. My project matches some students' surplus food with other students that don't get enough to eat for lunch.
