Service to Others

Religion is more than an isolated subject at Resurrection School.  The school also encourages its students to be mindful of the needs of others by actively participating in Christian service in the community.  Students experience the message of the gospel in action.  

Below is a list of some of the Service Projects that our students are involved with:
 

Part of the Solution - POTS 

Midnight Run

Grade 8 students from Resurrection School volunteer twice a year to make a Midnight Run.  For more than 25 years, Midnight Run has been a volunteer organization dedicated to providing assistance for homeless people.  

Students collect and organize donations of food and clothing, and then, accompanied by parent and faculty volunteers, they travel by van to New York City and personally distribute their donations to needy and homeless people at designated Midnight Run stations.  

Christmas Toy Drive

Food Pantry Drive

Every month students in all grades collect designated food and household supplies for their less fortunate neighbors.  Students collect and organize donations, which are brought once a month to the Caritas Food Pantry in Port Chester, NY.  Holy Rosary Food Pantry distributes food to hundreds of local people each month.  Students experience first hand the importance of sharing with those in their community who are less fortunate.  

When life gives you extra blessings, Jesus reminds us to share those blessings however you can.  

Resurrection students continue to put their faith into action. Here our 8th graders providing donations for United For The Troops, a nonprofit organization that sends care packages to our deployed US military troops around the world. Their mission: Bringing a little comfort to our troops.

Our 8th graders boxed and loaded over 1378 donated food items, including Easter Baskets for our friends at Caritas. We are so proud of these students for their leadership and for putting their faith into action.
