SUMMER 2024 COMMUNITY OUTREACH SALT Over 320 6th-9th grade students were involved in Shiloh’s Service and Leadership Team (S.A.L.T) this year and completed five service/fundraising projects. In the fall, S.A.L.T. members served at Wet Cement Preschool (a ministry of Potter's House), host a Fall Festival, collected coats for Oklahoma’s Delaware County schools, and spent a day at our Arkansas State Parks cleaning up the trails and recreation areas. In December, they made hundreds of stockings filled with art supplies for the kids at Tyson Elementary as a part of “Do Good December.” In the spring, 6th and 7th partnered with the Pack Shack and Crystal Bridges Museum to pack thousands of free art kits to be distributed to kids across Northwest Arkansas this summer. CLA Impact Chick-fil-A Leadership Academy is a national program built to develop student leaders. It has an eight-month curriculum created by Chick-fil-A and Addo to teach leadership skills and encourage students to make a difference. This year, 100 of Shiloh’s 10th and 11th grade students participated in the program, demonstrating their commitment to personal growth and community service. They attended Leadership Labs, completed a “Do Good December” project, and executed a capstone Impact Project. The Impact Project is completely student-led and allows students to put the lessons they learned into action. This year, for “Do Good December.” CLA students packed hundreds of stockings filled with Christmas treats for candidates of the Naval Special Warfare pipeline in Coronado, California. For the 2024 Impact Project, CLA members raised over $10,000 to complete Greenhouse for Grace, which provided a garden, greenhouse, chicken coop, and chicken run for Saving Grace Ministries. Saving Grace NWA provides housing and services to girls who have aged out of the foster system and are facing homelessness. COMMUNITY OUTREACH 5
