Servicing our school community.

Service given to the school helps all the children and keeps our costs down and it is a great way to get involved. Our Lady of Lourdes requires all families to give 25 hours of service per year. 10 of each family’s service hours must be fundraising hours. The children and school benefit immeasurably from the extra attention and programs provided by our wonderfully dedicated volunteers. There are many opportunities to volunteer.  Below is a list of just some of the ways to volunteer. Get involved and enjoy being a part of OLL! 

For the protection of all, a background check including fingerprinting is done for all volunteers and coaches.  All Volunteer Chaperones must be 21 years of age or older.  For more information, click below.
