About:
John S. Burke Catholic High School continues to exemplify its commitment to service through the meaningful involvement of its student-athletes in the local community. Across multiple programs, students are stepping beyond competition to make a positive impact where it is needed most.
Recently, the Varsity Boys and Girls Basketball teams volunteered their time at the Florida Community Food Pantry, working together to support families facing food insecurity. Through hands-on service, the student-athletes helped ensure that essential resources reached community members in need while reinforcing the importance of compassion and teamwork beyond the court.
In addition, the school’s Varsity Cheer team volunteered at the Beautiful People Annual 5K, assisting with event operations and helping create an uplifting and encouraging atmosphere for participants. Their enthusiasm and support contributed to the success of the event while advancing a meaningful cause.
These service efforts reflect the values at the heart of Burke Catholic—leadership, empathy, and giving back. By using their time and talents to support the community, Burke Catholic student-athletes continue to demonstrate that true success is measured not only by wins, but by the positive difference made in the lives of others.
