Service

Overview

Service

Service is a key element of Jesuit Charism.  At St. Ignatius School students, parents, and staff participate in many service activities that are tied to our Schoolwide Learning Expectations and the Jesuit philosophy of serving the poor and the needy.  Voluntary school-wide and classroom service projects help our students to be young men and women for others.

Feed a Family 2024
Nov 18 - Dec 20 Advent Service Project

Many students in our local public schools receive free or reduced-cost breakfast and lunch. Often, these are the most nutritious meals these children eat during the day. When schools are closed for winter vacations, families are left to provide these meals. Many cannot afford to do so. Please consider helping these families by donating non-perishable, nutritious food items to our Feed a Family at Christmas drive.

We are focusing on a different need each day of the week from November 18th through December 20th. Each day offers a fun incentive:

Ukraine is in Our Prayers

During our school St. Patrick’s Day Mass, we held a special collection to support Ukrainian families seeking refuge in Poland. The outpouring of love and generosity was truly amazing.

St. Ignatius students and families donated $7,900!

You are true men and women for others!

Adopt A Family

During Advent several classes will adopt needy families from the community. The students pray for these families throughout the season.  We request wish lists from the families and our students bring in wrapped Christmas gifts for each member of the family.

Responding to Crisis

When there is a local, national, or global crisis our students want to help.  They remember all those affected in daily prayer and in their actions.  Students have organized various school-wide collections.  They have collected cash donations for victims of natural disasters.  And, they have also collected important personal items such as shoes, coats, and pajamas.  Also, small groups of students or individuals perform acts of service on their own time to respond to the needs of others.
