For years, educators have quietly stepped in to fill this need—stocking desk drawers with granola bars purchased with their own money. While generous, this shouldn't be their burden to bear. Charge Up! replaces makeshift setups with a sustainable, dignified system. Teachers can now discreetly provide a healthy snack to any student who needs one, on any day, for any reason—no questions asked, no stigma attached.

Our goal at the NACS Education Foundation is to truly listen to the needs of our students and teachers and then respond with support. We began this process over the last two weeks and will continue to do so as the foundation grows and develops.
