MARY IMMACULATE SCHOOL
COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECTS
2008-2009
Approximately once per month, the Mary Immaculate School Community participates in a service project to support the activities of area groups lending help to others. These projects are intended to instill in our school students and families an everyday process of giving to others.
Each project will normally be active for approximately 10 days prior to the final turn in date shown below. A list of needed items will be made available prior to most of the events. Please check the links below for each project. While Mary Immaculate performs these drives at a specific time, these organizations need help continuously. If you have items of need at any time, please contact the organization.
