The tradition of giving back is a cornerstone of Foxcroft School. Our commitment to involvement in and meaningful service to the community is reflected in an array of student-run organizations, community service opportunities and special ad hoc efforts, limited only by students' busy schedules.

In recent years, for instance, students have organized fund-raisers in response to Hurricane Katrina and the tsunami. In the spring of 2008, the annual Junior Class Walk-a-thon raised $36,000 for the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation. And in the spring of 2007, the Junior Class raised over $10,000 for the Pediatric AIDS Unit of the Korle Bu Hospital in Ghana, Africa.

In addition to weekly, on-going service opportunities (see list below) and ad hoc weekend activities (listed below) several times a year, the entire community takes time out to do community service activities, with students and faculty working side-by-side. They may prepare holiday food baskets and cards for the needy, pick up litter on Foxcroft Road or prepare community mailings for special events, such as the Hunt Breakfast or the Holiday pageant. Or they may care for their campus home by painting the gazebos, cleaning and storing outdoor furniture or organizing costumes, library books and Admission or Development Office mailings.
