The nonprofit Assisteens of Capistrano Valley has recognized 24 graduating students from local high schools for their volunteer work with the organization throughout their high school careers. Assisteens also highlighted the students’ plans in continuing their education this coming fall.

This year’s graduating class amassed more than 3,100 hours in volunteer work total over their four years in high school. Their work was recognized by the organization at a private senior tea event at The Tea House in San Juan Capistrano, co-chaired by Carolyn Mower and Lucy Williamson O’Quinn.

Assisteens of Capistrano Valley promotes leadership and volunteerism in high school students through their four- to five-year program. As an auxiliary of the Assistance League of Capistrano Valley, California, Assisteens allows students to engage in volunteer and leadership positions throughout the school year.

Beginning with their freshman year of high school, graduating students’ past volunteer work included having “served on committees, held leadership positions, provided service to community events, and supported our military,” according to a press release.

Students were able to volunteer locally, with seniors specifically volunteering at the Bargain Box Store, Family Assistance Ministries, and at city of San Clemente community events, such as Puttin’ on the Glitz and the Spring Extravaganza. Senior students also served as volunteers in San Juan Capistrano at the Pediatric Unit of Mission Hospital, The Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano, and Operation School Bell.

According to Assisteens of Capistrano Valley, the students’ volunteer work continued even through the midst of the pandemic, with the students providing baked goods and sacked lunches to U.S. Marines and Family Assistance Ministries.

Due to COVID-19 regulations, the Assisteens’ annual Rose Medallion Ball was canceled and replaced by the senior tea. According to the group, safety regulations and social distancing measures were put in place to ensure a safe and healthy graduation ceremony.

Assisteens is currently accepting new students to enroll in their four- to five-year high school program.
