About to Begin


Loading up the car.

My name is Jeff Scott and I am the Student Body President at Judge Memorial Catholic High School. A few years ago I went to the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation with my older brother and do some service work. We saw poverty and destitution that rivaled scenes from third world countries. Trash was everywhere, money was nowhere, addiction was running rampant and school children simply had nothing for their studies. There were shortages of supplies like pencils, notebooks, and binders. We decided that we could help change this situation. For the past five years we have collected new or gently used school supplies from the students of Judge Memorial Catholic High School at the end of the school year. I am extremely pleased to say that Judge Students donated more than 1000 lbs of school supplies this year. Along with sending these school supplies down there I have also decided to return to the Reservation for a week and help out in anyway I can. I will be staying in a trailer with my brother near St. Charles Parish on the Reservation. I can't wait to get going.
