Outreach

Students at George H. Luck believe in making a difference in the community and the world.  Each year a group of students is formed and together they plan outreach projects that involve the students and parent population.  Since 2007 George H. Luck has been creating "Backpacks of Luck" during the Christmas season and delivering them to the homeless people in our city centre.  We have also organized food bank donations, community clean up, school supplies to Africa and weekly "Food for a Friend" deliveries to an inner city school.
