Community Service is one of the most rewarding experiences!
Youth Council members have been able to help East Brunswick in so many aspects.
Community Service is a fun way to get to know a bunch of people while helping
those who are less fortunate. By participating you can earn a number of
community service hours that can be placed on your official high school
transcript.
Youth Council holds food drives to benefit Middlesex County Food Organization
and Outreach Distribution Services, helps the elementary schools with their
special events, visits the residents at the Chelsea Senior Assisted Living
facility, UNICEF, the DAISY Association, the Township of East Brunswick, the
Library, Temple B'Nai Shalom, Ronald McDonald House, American Cancer Society
and many other organizations.
In the 2007-2008 school year Youth Council members completed 5,344 community
service hours. East Brunswick Youth Council was the award recipient for the
2007 Friends of Recreation, Parks & Community Service Award by the Township
of East Brunswick in June 2007.
In the 2008-2009 school year Youth Council members completed 6,171 community service hours.
