Dear Community Members,

In this time of school accountability focused mainly on test scores, we here at Hartford Union High School have considered our philosophy and envisioned what we want to see our students achieve. We have claimed our mission and that is to engage and support all learners to discover their passions, achieve high academic goals, and contribute to a global society. It is our belief that students should reach beyond their school walls to explore their passions and give back/forward: in this case, to their own backyard. It is for these reasons that we are reaching out to you, our community.

We are planning a “Day of Service” on May 24, 2018, involving our entire student body and staff (around 1,500 people). Projects are being planned with the goal of contributing to the positive spirit of our community. Project ideas include elder care, hunger/homelessness/poverty, gardening, animal care, literacy, tutoring, organization, and much more. We are looking for specific projects/ideas that may be of benefit to the community at large, at your neighborhood school, or at your place of business.

If you are interested in hosting a student and/or staff group and allowing them to complete a service project, please contact us using the email or phone number listed below. If you have an idea for the community at large, please let us know about that idea, as well. Large or small, these projects will make a difference for and in our community and instill a sense of pride in our students and staff through giving back and forward.

We are also looking for community members or groups who are able to provide some financial assistance. We are seeking sponsors for tee-shirts, transportation, meals, and project materials. If you are able to assist with these aspects of this Day of Service, it would help greatly in moving our mission forward into our community. Thank you for your consideration!

We are excited to begin this project, and we intend to make it an annual event with your support. We are planning forward with the hope that we inspire our youth to continue their service after graduation.

Anticipating a beneficial and long-lasting partnership,

Day of Service Committee
