Students helping in a classroom. Caption reads life would be boring without serviceMaggie Walker requires 140 hours of community service by the 3rd quarter of every student’s senior year. Each year the school holds a community service fair to help bring organizations and students together. This year the date of the fair is November 17th so that all students would have a chance to attend if interested. 

The Freshman Class is being split into two groups, with the first group attending from 10:50-11:10 and the second group attending from 11:10-11:30. During lunch (11:30-noon) the Fair will be open to all interested students.

The following wonderful organizations are planning to attend: Cameron K Gallagher Foundation, Courts for Kids, The Doorways, HandsOn Greater Richmond, James River Association, Lewis Ginger Botanical Gardens, Maggie L Walker National Historic Site, Richmond Peace Education Center / Richmond Youth Peace Project, RAMPS, RVAccess, and Sylvia’s Sister.
