Community Service Projects
Harborlight is committed to the tenet in its Mission Statement that speaks to compassion and humanitarianism by providing multiple opportunities throughout the year for students, faculty and staff to actively participate in a well established Community Service Program. Through contributions of time, talent and treasure, students comprehend the value of helping others on multiple levels and experience the personal empowerment and satisfaction that comes with making a difference in the world.
Projects within the Community Service Program address issues related to the environment, homelessness, hunger, disease, literacy, as well as support local, national and international causes and charities. From children in Central Asia to seniors at Essex Park Rehabilitation & Nursing Center next door, Harborlight reaches out to communities in need with compassion and respect.

Empty Bowl Dinner – Friday, March 11th – Over $3,000 was raised for Beverly Bootstraps!
Thank you to all who helped make this year’s Empty Bowl a huge success – from our talented K-8 potters, soup makers of all ages, to local artists and food purveyors. It was a wonderful community effort that reaped big rewards – for our neighbors in need.
