At The Marin School we encourage and empower our students to learn from and give back to their communities. 

Sierra Leone Project - 

In conjunction with Compassion First, TMS Students raise funds for the Advocacy Movement Network, a local NGO that focuses on advocacy of women and children.  Located in Kissi Town, a seaside community about two hours from Freetown, the funds raised benefit the Fountain of Mercy Shelter and Makripodis Secondary School.   The situation at the school and shelter is a struggle: children receive, on average, one meal a day and teachers work despite insufficient funds for salary.  In June 2010 TMS students raised over $2455 through their participation in the Xterra Marin Headlands Trail Run.
