Service Marvelwood’s weekly Community Service program is unlike any other.

Each Saturday morning, students and faculty engage in on-going service projects around campus. Even when we can’t leave campus due to COVID restrictions, we’ve found that there’s much to do right here on Skiff Mountain.

Marvelwood Garden & Growing Dome

Our year-round garden program focuses on biodiversity and natural and organic methodology. Produce is served in the Dining Hall or contributed to local food banks.

The Great Sign Project 2020-2021

Students are using the Innovation Lab to create new signs on the laser engraver and installing them throughout campus.

Halls & Walls

Spreading hope and inspiration through word and color.

Helping Hands

Recycling plastic grocery bags into ‘plarn’- a sturdy plastic yarn - which is then woven into sleeping mats favored by homeless organizations.

Every week across the campus

we work together

to make the world

a better,

kinder,

more colorful place

for all of us.

Be the change you wish to see in the world. -Mahatma Gandhi
