Seneca Students Help Homeless in Philadelphia
“Experiences like these transcend what we do in the classroom and on the athletic fields,” said Head Volleyball Coach and Health and Physical Education teacher Bob Colombo.
Seneca High School students got together for a team effort to help feed and clothe the homeless in Philadelphia. Family and Consumer Science teacher Susan Arfuso and her students in the Child Development course hand crafted over 200 bagged lunches. The lunches were then distributed by thirty-five student-athletes on Seneca’s Girls’ Volleyball team in Logan Square in Philadelphia, PA. The Girls’ Volleyball team also handed out socks, hats, gloves, and blankets that were purchased from money raised during a charitable event, as well as donations from team members and their families. Head Volleyball Coach and Health and Physical Education teacher Bob Colombo said, “Experiences like these transcend what we do in the classroom and on the athletic fields. On the court, there is only one winner, but giving back to the community is a win for everyone involved.”
