VASJ student-athletes volunteer over Christmas break

We're so proud of our student-athletes for spreading some Christmas cheer over winter break! 

Each year the VASJ football team "adopts" five local families in need to give them a special Christmas. Players were asked to write and submit an essay on what this service project means to them and why they wanted to participate. Selected players then spent Christmas Eve morning shopping for the families. Afterward, players and coaches met the families in the VASJ Cafeteria to deliver presents and spread some joy! 

In addition, a group of junior baseball players spent a morning volunteering at the Richmond Heights food pantry. Our students helped distribute food to local families in need. We love that service is a core value at VASJ!
