Berkeley High School Community,

In celebration of the efforts of Cesar Chavez & other great examples of
community leaders, we will celebrate March as a Month of Service.

 

This month is dedicated to improving our school as well as raising our
awareness of issues affecting our friends in our community & the world. We
will host after-school service events and a Service Fair to allow an
opportunity for students to become active participants in their community. 

 

Below is a calendar of events. Please visit the leadership office and find
the sign-up sheets in the green volunteer folder. Please note: These events
are also being offered to Seniors with truancy issues, who need to clear
unexcused absences from their records.

 

THIS WEEK:

 

Letter Writing Campaign Leadership Office

Thursday March 14 at 3:30 pm

Sign up to write a series of letters to politicians about a wide range of
issues. We will either address causes in Amnesty International's "Write for
Right's" campaign or write about local issues.

 

UPCOMING:

 

PB&J Delivery Leadership Office

Thursday March 21 3:30 pm

We will make and deliver peanut butter & jelly sandwiches to people on the
streets of Berkeley. We hope to show compassion for people that we often
overlook and maybe make some new friends.

 

Youth Leadership Conference at Young Adult Project 1730 Oregon Street

Saturday March 23 from 8:30 am - 3:30pm (Limited to 35 students)

This free conference will provide youth with an opportunity to meet new
people and gain leadership skills.

Thursday March 28 at 3:30 pm (limited to 35 students)

Please sign up ahead of this date in order to join us in making kits of

is one way to make this difficult part of someone's life feel more
manageable. We will be collecting toothpaste/toothbrush, razors, underwear,
socks and deodorant all month. Drop off at BHS Leadership office.
