Holiday Cheer Means Volunteer
![Residents children take a break to play games on the computers before dinner at Casa Marianella. Senior Kieren Garner said the despite the hard work, along with the mental and physical exhaustion, she has never felt such pride and fulfillment in something she does.
I got many chances to play with children from The Congo, one of which was very ill yet so sunny, Garner said. They had been through such hardships but they were happy to just sit in my lap and do face painting.](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/IMG_1464-900x600.jpg)
Summer Service
![Helping out Jess Gilles, an instructor for Hopeful Hearts, freshman MJ Kelly poses with horse Hercules on Oct. 20. Kelly rode on Hercules and practiced their trotting and right diagonal. Hercules is a really chill horse, but once you get him going he can go really fast and do some incredible things, Kelly said. Hes also super sweet, so he works well with kids.](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/narts-900x600.jpg)
Time to Volunteer
Project Lavender Underway
Students volunteer in local Miracle League
![Waterloo swim instructor, Emler swim instructor, and Camp Hope leader are just some of the jobs available for students over the summer. Junior Clara Rabago will be working as a small group leader at Camp Hope for two weeks over the summer where she will be taking care of the children there and participating in activities such as church services, games, art, and science. “I’m excited to have my own kids this year,” Rabago said. “I like seeing how a kid will come in and be super shy, but then they come out all being friends. They’re so happy and energetic and it’s just cool to see how much these kids grow within a week.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/crossword-pic-edit.jpg)
