The adage "It is better to give than receive" certainly rings true at Saint Lawrence Academy.  Saint Lawrence Academy participates in community outreach throughout the school year through a series of established community outreach projects.  In addition, as natural disasters occur or emergency situations present themselves, the Saint Lawrence Academy community embraces these needs as well.

Over the years, the Saint Lawrence Academy community has provided clothes and food to Sacred Heart Community Services, supported clients at Catholic Charities, provided emergency funds for Catholic Relief Services, and more.  The generosity with which the community responds to these needs has been overwhelming, a true sign that Saint Lawrence Academy students understand the need to provide for those less fortunate than themselves.
