Community Service
Community Service Opportunities
Students at Canby High School are encouraged to give their time to organizations near and far. Volunteering provides students with excellent leadership and personal development, and also helps students learn about what they're passionate about. Student clubs, such as National Honor Society, Key Club, FBLA, FFA and MEChA help to foster this goal but if students are looking for additional opportunities, they can click on the CHS Community Service Resources on this page, or the following list can be a great resource.\ The following is a list of organizations and businesses in the greater Portland metro area who frequently request and utilize student volunteers. Students will need to contact the organizations directly for more information.
