Service Projects
People to People encourages our students to give back to the community here in our area as well as abroad. During the year, students will have the opportunity to take part in several service projects. It is a requirement that each student participate in at least one service project. Below are our service projects for this year. There will be additions as more projects become available.
wreaths across America
The mission of Wreaths Across America, Remember, Honor, Teach, is carried out in part by coordinating wreath laying ceremonies on a specified Saturday in December at Arlington, as well as veterans’ cemeteries and other locations in all 50 states and beyond. To read about the history of Wreaths Across America, click HERE.
This service project has two parts. First, our goal is to help provide wreaths for the wreath laying ceremony by selling them to people who would like to honor our deceased veterans. Second, we will help to lay the wreaths on December 14th at the Susquehanna Memorial Gardens in York, PA, and take part in the ceremony at noon.
