Please keep in mind that our team does their best to offer as much community service as possible. With a large portion of Deer Park students seeking community service hours (way to go!), we may not be able to accommodate all students. In many cases, community service programs book up the day of registration. Please see the items below for non-traditional community service opportunities and resources for additional ways to earn your hours.

Good Samaritan Hospital Junior Volunteer Program
Good Samaritan Hospital’s popular Junior Volunteer Program is for qualified students between 15 and 18 years of age. Participating teens make a commitment to 100 hours or more over the course of the volunteer time period. The contributions of junior volunteers are invaluable to both the students and Good Samaritan Hospital. Please note that applications are closed to students in their senior year effective October 2022. Juniors who are interested in volunteering in their senior year, must submit their application before that date.
To obtain an application, or for more information on the Junior Volunteer Program, please contact Junior Volunteer Coordinators Ingrid DiGiovanna and Laurie Feldscher at 631-376-3396.
