The Pelican Service Organization

The mission of the Pelican Service Organization (PSO) is to enrich the lives of Loomis Chaffee students by reaching out to communities and causes near and far.

In order to insure everyone in the community an opportunity to participate, the Pelican Service Organization (PSO) operates in several venues: Pelican service clubs, Pelican service trips, and after school programs. The governing PSO, however, involves a term's commitment to one or two afternoons a week — working with a local after-school program, visiting nursing homes, or tutoring elementary school children in Hartford.

There are many ways and places to pursue an interest in community service here on the Island. The sprit of volunteerism is an integral part of our lives at the Loomis Chaffee School and something which we are all very proud. We clearly see the value and rewards for students and others in directly participating in improving life in our larger community and around the globe.
