Community Service
At Prep, community service is inherent, not prescribed. Your student can choose and lead projects that make a positive impact in the community. By taking ownership of community-building initiatives, students discover the joy of service to others while developing compassion and leadership.
A Tradition of Service
More than 80% of our students are involved in Sandia Prep’s voluntary community service program.
Some of the many service projects led by our students include:
Donation Drives - Students raise funds through monetary and goods donations for various charities, like PB&J Family Services, which provides assistance to at-risk children and their families, and Saranam, which helps break the cycle of generational homelessness.
HopeWorks - Students serve lunch at the shelter for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
Libros y Niños - Students raise money and provide books and mentoring to local elementary children in need.
Locker 505 - Students sort through donations and organize clothes for this local clothing bank.
Los Ranchos Elementary - National Honor Society members and Prep ninth-graders tutor elementary school students and connect with fifth-graders as writing buddies.
Make-A-Wish Foundation
National Honor Society members raise funds and awareness for local Wish Kids.
Storehouse and Roadrunner Food Bank - Sandia Prep community service groups gather donations and volunteer on-site at local food banks.
United Blood Services Blood Drive - Prep seventh graders sponsor an annual Blood Drive, one of the largest school blood drives in the state.
