How Delphian School’s Community Service Secretly Builds Tomorrow’s Most Relentless Young Leaders—and Why You Should Care Now
Take, for instance, a student volunteer from the Delphian School in Oregon. For more than a year, she’s been volunteering at a weekend breakfast program that serves people in need. She lives in San Francisco, where homelessness and poverty are highly visible. But it wasn’t until she began volunteering weekly that her perspective shifted. She memorized over a hundred regular coffee orders, got to know the people behind them, and found herself part of a close-knit team of volunteers.
“I can confidently say that my soft skills have been profoundly influenced by my volunteer work,” she wrote in a Delphian School Instagram post. “The term ‘community’ in community service holds special meaning because I feel part of such a loving group.”
