Welcome to S&S Society!

About Us

Hi! I’m the founder and Executive Director of Service & Social Society and a MSE/IB student at Suncoast Community High School. I started S&S Society in 2022 to raise awareness of community issues and help students like you find meaningful volunteer opportunities.

S&S Society offers planned events where students volunteer, socialize, and have fun while helping nonprofits address some of the community’s most challenging issues. Through S&S Society, you can join forces with students in your community, rally for a cause, and collaborate on impactful student-led initiatives.

I’m passionate about the arts and STEM and enjoy sharing my talents with those in need. Whether it’s through our time, talents, or treasures, everyone has something unique to give. Embrace your passion today and discover how you can take action to make a difference.

Sign up to volunteer at our events, lead your own Day of Service project, attend our Leadership Retreat, become an S&S Society Ambassador, or start your own chapter. Join S&S Society today and become tomorrow’s civic leaders!
