Amount Requested:

My Students: 
Students who attend SOAR are at risk for failing if they were to remain in the larger high school setting. Students are from all ethnic backgrounds, and include homeless students, students with children, students of low income families, and students who are credit deficient.
My Project: 
Many of our students come to school worrying about their families and their family's basic needs. The purpose of this grant is to help meet those basic needs so that students can focus on academics.
My Students Need: 
Five students have indicated that their families need food. Families will be given a $50 Walmart gift card and information on local food pantries.
