WHAT IS CHICKERING CARES

​

​Chickering CARES is a PTO initiative that aims to create awareness around the needs in our greater community by presenting students with opportunities to contribute and make a difference! Community service initiatives teach about direct service, indirect service, advocacy and research, all of which foster kindness, generosity, and understanding of those around us! Students develop philanthropic leadership skills as well as an understanding as to how they can become a catalyst for change through hands-on volunteerism and charitable giving. TOGETHER, we CAN make a difference!
