Community Service

As part of Drew’s mission, the education of the whole student includes being a responsible citizen, both locally and globally.  Community Service is an integral component of Drew students' educational and social experience. Although Drew does not require community service hours to graduate, a large percentage of our students volunteer as individuals.  In addition, entire classes take on community service projects as part of the advisory program.  From discussions and planning to actual service in our community, Drew students are involved in such projects as:

• Serving food every month at Glide Memorial Church
• San Francisco Coast cleanup
• Packing and preparing food at the San Francisco Food Bank
• Weekly tutoring program at Cobb School
• Organizing clothing and food drives
• Fundraising for international and national disasters such as the Tsunami in Asia and Hurricane Katrina
• Volunteering at the Recreation Center for the Handicapped (The Janet Pomeroy Center) Valentine's Day dance
