![Students give back to community during St. Anthony School Service Night #Catholic - On Feb. 11, Service Club members and their families at St. Anthony School in Hawthorne, N.J., participated in their annual Service Night. More than 50 members, their families and alumni gathered for an evening dedicated to faith, fellowship, and giving back to the community led by faculty members Elisa Wares, Sandra Tampol and Michele Hancewicz.
Throughout the evening, students and their families worked on service projects to benefit local organizations. The group prepared 114 pans of baked ziti for the Father English Community Center in Paterson, N.J., helping to provide warm meals to individuals and families in need.
In addition, 100 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were assembled for Angels on the Ground, an organization that serves the homeless population of Newark, N.J. Volunteers also prepared personal care kits and snack bags to further support the individuals served by Angels on the Ground.

Spreading Valentine’s Day cheer, students created festive treat bags for women and children that will be distributed through the New Hope Food Pantry. Placemats were designed for the retired Sisters of Mary Help, bringing both color and encouragement to their dining tables. In addition, hand-made bookmarks were created for senior citizens of the Oakland Public Library, offering a small but meaningful token of kindness.
The evening was an example of faith in action as families came together to serve others with generosity and compassion. Through their efforts, the Service Club once again demonstrated the power of community, kindness, and living out the call to serve.
