This month, our service project was called "Cura Canem". We placed paper recycling baskets in each of our school's classrooms and shredded them at the end of the month. In total, we collected 14 bags of shredded paper. All paper was donated to a local bet/animal facility in need.

By collecting tuna cans, the JCL students of Houston High aimed to show gratitude this Thanksgiving to our veterans. Pictured above is the 259 cans we collected. While turkey was enjoyed on Thanksgiving, the Memphis Veterans Administration Hospital allocated the collected tuna to make sure the veterans could enjoy tuna with turkey.

Redeemer JCL Chapter students helped fight hunger while having fun creating a delicious rendition of the Pantheon in Rome. Students embarked on a "cheesy" but worthwhile project - building none other than the...yes...
Mac-theon - a model of the Pantheon built entirely out of mac and cheese! After creating their model, they delivered over 150 boxes of macaroni and cheese to the local Nourish Food Bank in Murfreesboro.
