Get Involved in a Community Service Project!
Looking to complete community service hours or just want to give back? We offer a variety of short-term opportunities for middle and high school students.
Activities and projects vary and take place on or off site at various locations, including Community Giving Tree, Lazarus House, Bread and Roses, Atria Senior Living, Capernaum place, and One Wish Project. Dates and times may vary. Our projects may include:
Crafts and Activities for Children
Lead fun and engaging crafts and activities for young children—help spark creativity and bring smiles to their faces.
Meal Preparation and Service
Assist in preparing and serving dinner to families in need, offering not only a warm meal but also a sense of connection and community.
Donation Sorting and Organization
Help sort and organize donated items to ensure they’re distributed efficiently to those who need them most.
Collection Drives
Andover Youth Services (AYS) regularly hosts collection drives—stay tuned for upcoming opportunities to donate essential items and support local families.
Share Your Talents
Do you play an instrument, have a special skill, or enjoy working with older adults? Share your time and talents to brighten someone’s day.
Garden Care
Get involved in planting, harvesting, and caring for local community gardens—including the Robb Center Community Garden—and help grow something meaningful.
