Community Service
As Lasallians, we are first and foremost called to serve the needs of the poor in our own community. Lasallian Ministry organizes several local service opportunities each week to allow students to serve the Pittsburgh community.
As a school rooted in the Gospel values of integrity, respect, service justice, and peace, Central Catholic is committed to forming leaders who reflect these values. Lasallian Ministry honors the legacy of Saint John Baptist de La Salle and the Catholic tradition through these service opportunities.
Service opportunities organized through Lasallian Ministry include:
After School Tutoring and Mentoring at Sacred Heart
Central Catholic students travel to Sacred Heart Elementary School in Shadyside once a week to tutor and mentor students in the after-school program.
PA Lutheran Center for the Blind
Central Catholic students prepare and serve meals for the visually impaired community.
