Community Service

The community service program’s mission is to extend the Merion School’s reach into the community, teach good stewardship to children, and provide another opportunity for community among Merion families through service projects. We plan drives, projects and collaborations within our local and wider community.  Whether it's an emergency collection for the Red Cross relief fund, a Winter Essentials clothes drive for Philadelphia's families in need, or a multi - community book project - our hope is that at least one will overlap with your own interests. We hope to represent what our Merion families feel passionate about and what you'd like to see our children become interested in. We also want to offer events you can get involved with if you are able. Thank you for your wonderful and continued support!
