Here are my favorites from my school and my friends’ schools:

-A community garden, the produce from which goes to a local food bank
-Students who volunteer to be in charge of “areas of concern” meaning they are responsible for keeping a certain part of the campus neat and trash-free.
-A school that hosts the Special Olympics

Lots of fundraisers:
tennis tournament for cancer research
-a pottery club that sells mugs (filled with ice cream) for environmental causes

and the most bizarre:
-Moustache Month, where boys and men grow facial hair and encourage sponsors to support them in support of wounded Marines. A worthy cause, but it sounded like an odd event when it was explained to me.
