OneSchool Global: Inspiring Students to Make a Difference
OneSchool Global Facilitates Community Support Initiatives
Students at OneSchool Global (OSG) in North America have demonstrated remarkable compassion this year, making a tangible impact through various outreach programs. Recognized in the latest impact report, these students and staff members have contributed significantly to support families, assist first responders, and uplift local charities across the continent.
Building Connections Through Charity
The OSG Outreach Program is based on core values including Integrity, Respect, Responsibility, Care & Compassion, and Commitment. Throughout the year, students have channeled these principles into meaningful actions, from fundraising initiatives to building relationships with local first responders. Their efforts have benefited vulnerable populations such as the elderly, unhoused individuals, and families in distress.
Highlights from This Year's Outreach Efforts
This year has been filled with inspiring examples of student-driven projects. For instance, in Rochester, students rallied together to provide $2,700 worth of groceries to help stock the Webster Community Chest Food Bank, ensuring food security for the community during the winter months.
On the west coast in Los Angeles, students took the time to serve hot meals to firefighters who were bravely battling wildfires in the region. In Kalispell, Montana, a student-organized walk-a-thon raised $8,750 for Logan Health Children's Hospital, paired with thoughtful handmade kindness cards for seniors in the area.
In Hamilton, Ontario, holiday donations from the student body enhanced the efforts of Dundas Community Services, ensuring that numerous families received food and gifts during festive times. Additionally, students in Trinidad & Tobago gathered supplies and donated $300 to Maracas RC Church, helping families facing challenging circumstances.
Fostering Local Partnerships
Throughout North America, OSG campuses have established valuable partnerships with local organizations, including police departments, hospitals, food banks, and charities such as HAVEN, TruLight127 Ministries, the Salvation Army, and Interlake Food Bank. These collaborations have taken various forms, from lemonade sales to comprehensive fundraising campaigns, demonstrating what compassion looks like through action.
Jennifer Porter, Director of Development of Marketing at HAVEN, emphasized the significance of community support, stating, "To have a school group come in or a community partner come in with donations means everything to us. […] It means that those in shelter and not in shelter are going to get the things that they need."
Empowering Students Beyond the Classroom
Jonathan Borys, the OneSchool Global Regional Director of Education, highlighted the educational philosophy behind these outreach efforts: "Every outreach, no matter how small, reinforces our belief that education isn't confined to the classroom — it's lived through service. We want our students to be life-ready by the time they leave our halls. Encouraging self-started charity projects like these helps ensure that they graduate into communities that they've learned from and are ready to lead." Students are learning to be active and engaged citizens, equipped for the real world.
