Archmere Academy Gives Back

Empathetic leadership is a key component of Archmere Academy's mission. We integrate service to others in need into the Archmere experience. In addition to the regular outreach programs, the student-run Community Service Club plans food drives through the school year to support local food banks, like Claymont Community Center and Knollwood Community Center. There are also opportunities for service within the Archmere community through our annual blood drive and tag days that raise funds for various local charities and organizations.

    • KNOLLWOOD COMMUNITY CENTER

      Our community service club visits the Knollwood Community Center to participate in the annual "Trunk or Treat". This event is held in the Knollwood parking lot where kids can dress up in their Halloween costumes, walk from car to car and collect candy.

    • BLOOD DRIVE

      Each year, members of Archmere faculty and students donate close to 50 pints of blood, saving the lives of nearly 200 local patients in the Delmarva area

    • LLS STUDENTS OF THE YEAR

      LLS Student Visionaries of the Year, Jack Chesman and Kasey Palma led the team, "It’s In Our Blood", raising $106,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society during their 7-week fundraising endeavor.
