We encourage you to sign up! It's a great way to hang out with friends while giving back to the community.
Since 2020, the Chatfield BAGS Club (Formerly CSH Bagging For Homelessness) has been providing care packages for houseless individuals in the state of Colorado. We provide our members with a student-led experience incomparable to any club at Chatfield and pride ourselves in letting members experience real-world volunteering, as well as the chance to build a passion for community service while having fun with their peers.
This club focuses on planning for and executing annual care package deliveries as well as many opportunities to volunteer in the community for local organizations. We often work in groups, complete projects, and take trips to complete service projects and volunteer opportunities in the Denver and Littleton area. If you love helping people and are looking to make a difference in the community, sign up/email us or visit Mr. White's room (E211)!
