RHS Students Get Schooled in Community Service

Ramsey High School guidance intern, Megan O’Neill, coordinated a Community Service Fair that was held on Tuesday, April 16 at Ramsey High School. 

Members of various Bergen County organizations presented information about their services. Through this community outreach initiative, students were able to have the opportunity to speak with the representatives from these local organizations and learn about volunteer opportunities. 

The following organizations were represented: Community Volunteer Services, Ramsey Free Public Library, Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey, Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center, YWCA of Ridgewood, Valley Hospital, Community Blood Services, Ramsey Ambulance Corps, Ramsey Fire Department, Care Plus, Huntington’s Disease Society of America, and Valley Home Care and Hospice.

"Through this valuable initiative, students [make] meaningful connections with organizations in their community and learn how they can become an active volunteer," O'Neill said in an email.
