Get Involved

Are you aware of the “three T’s” of philanthropy? Time. Talent. Treasure. Organizations often do a wonderful job asking for and thanking donors for their treasure, but time and talent are just as critical to an institution’s success. Church Farm School is beyond grateful to all of its volunteers and community members who also support our mission through gifts of time and talent. Below are some of our various opportunities.
Board of Directors – The Church Farm School Board of Directors is a committed group of men and women who lend their expertise to various areas, including governance, facilities management, student enrollment and marketing and fundraising. Please note that the Board of Directors is a limited, extra committed volunteer opportunity that cannot be extended to all whom are interested. If you are interested in learning more about the Board of Directors, contact development@mv-kanu.net or 610.363.5333. 
Alumni Association Executive Council – Alumni who are interested in helping CFS stay engaged and connected with all alumni, including mentorship, professional networking, supporting event attendance and fundraising should consider joining the Alumni Association Executive Council. If you are interested in becoming a member, please contact Lori McDermott at lmcdermott@mv-kanu.net and she will discuss this opportunity with you more specifically.
CFS Ambassadors – Past parents and CFS alumni are our biggest assets in spreading the word about the benefits of a CFS education. We have valued your partnership over the years and would love it if you would assist in recruiting new Griffin families. If you would like to stay connected with Church Farm School as a CFS Ambassador, please complete this form or contact the Admissions team at admissions@mv-kanu.net. Opportunities include being profiled in a publication or video, participating in a Parent panel at an Admission Open House, or even partnering with CFS to host a reception for parents in your area. 
Event Volunteers – The Development Team holds multiple events throughout the year for which we need extra hands (and minds!). Events include the CFS Golf Classic (September), Farm Fest (October) and Alumni Weekend (May). If you are interested in helping the Development Team plan and execute one or all of these events, please contact development@mv-kanu.net.
CFS Parents' Association - Help us spread the good word about Church Farm School, engage with administration and faculty on new initiatives and more. If interested in learning more, contact Director of Student Life Chet Blair at cblair@mv-kanu.net.
Griffin Clothes Closet - Our Griffin Clothes Closet is a designated area on campus where students can augment their wardrobe with donated new or gently used clothing. We are always looking for volunteers to assist with staffing the GCC, soliciting donations, inventory and more. To participate, reach out to jwickland@mv-kanu.net!
