We can’t do this without your support!
3MM serves morning snacks, lunch, and afternoon snacks to approx. 45 students and also provide lunch for all of our employees. That means that Yoelis,our school cook, prepares food for 60 people each day from her tiny kitchen!
To make this happen we use:
- 75 lbs protein
- 20 lbs. rice or other grains
- 60 lbs of vegetables
- 70 lbs of fruit
- 8 gallons of yogurt
- 3-4 doz. eggs
- 1 school cook
- 5 food deliveries, one per each day of the week
- 60 gallons of bottled water
Plus…
In the true Montessori spirit, the support of nearly 30 student helpers who are involved in every step of the lunch and snack making process.
They chop and dice vegetables and fruit, set lunch tables, wash plates and napkins, make bread and muffins, and tend our new vegetable garden.
Donating to our lunch campaign guarantees that our children receive the critical fuel their bodies need to accomplish the enormous task of becoming the kind, thoughtful and bright leaders of tomorrow—the thinkers, the problem solvers, the peacemakers—the positive change we all wish to see in the world!
