Community Service Programs

As a healthy, growth-promoting activity for students, Britten School encourages volunteering in the community. With this objective in mind, the school has established a multi-faceted community service program for qualified students under direct adult supervision. The program includes the following:

  1. Westchester Food Pantry – This activity provides students the opportunity to work in a community food pantry organizing, stocking, and preparing food for delivery.
  2. Northern Illinois Food Bank – Students volunteer their time sorting and packing food to be shipped to local food pantries and communities in 13 different counties.
  3. Grace Central Outreach — This activity provides students the opportunity to work in a community food pantry organizing, stocking, and preparing food for delivery.
  4. Westchester Library 

Special activities are frequently organized around the holidays. Parents sign a consent form for participation each year.
