Christopher Academy Community Service Project

As part of our commitment to social awareness the Christopher Academy Parent Association organized the annual Community Service Project.  This year our families donated books to be distributed to K.I.D.S. Kids Corporation II.  The program serves approximately 4,000 children in New Jersey by providing summer school, after-school programs, medical exams and follow-up visits, environmental science, leadership camps and so much more.  The donations help to continue their efforts to raise the level of the educational system in Newark and other hard-hit neighborhoods in New Jersey.  Our students had great fun drawing and sharing pictures to be included as a welcome to each child receiving a book.
