The power of giving

Participation in community outreach projects is an integral part of every student’s education at ACS. Each of our schools is committed to supporting a breathtaking range of local, national, and international projects and activities through fundraising, material donations, and good old fashioned sweat and muscle. Our educational programme actively reinforces this sense of community giving, and encourages all students to participate in the world around them as true global citizens.

Over the years ACS has chosen to champion many honourable causes, and we continue to adapt the list below as fresh challenges and needs arise. We are very proud of the work our students, parents, and staff undertake in the name of giving, and thank them all for their continued dedication.
