Monthly Community Service:Community Helpers

Create a Google slide thanking either the Huntington Manor Fire Department, the Suffolk County Police: Second Precinct or the Huntington Community First Aid Squad and receive one hour of community service.  Create one slide for each (for a total of 3) and receive a total of two hours. 

Send the above and below community service activities to ysprograms@shpl.info or to jgriffing@shpl.info with the title “COMMUNITY SERVICE” in the subject line. Please include your first and last name, age, grade and school in your email.  Please be patient as it might take a little time for us to send a virtual community service letter to document your service. Community service letters will be sent by October 15.  

Create two Google slides recommending a book that is in the YA Library.  The first slide should have the Title, author and picture of the book.  The second slide should have a review of at least three complete sentences stating why you should read the book.  Teens can submit up to two book recommendations for the month for a maximum of 2 hours of community service. 

Many community service opportunities are also available as online programs. Check our monthly and weekly newsletters and our library program calendar to see what is available.The majority of these programs require registration with a valid SHPL card in the participant’s name and are available to those in grades 6-12.
