Civic groups, arts
agencies and other community ogranizations that enrich cultural
life in the communities surrounding St. John's University's
campuses can find support from the Office of Community
Relations.
Free concerts and
blood drives, health awareness and food drives -- the Office
of Community Relations supports these and other
activities by partnering with agencies and organizations
throughout New York's five boroughs.
Our Mission
For more than 130
years, St. John's University has fostered a strong sense of
commitment toward its neighbors.
Accordingly, the
Office of Community Relations is dedicated to understanding and
serving the communities that border its campuses in the greater New
York area. The Office also maintains ties with communities adjacent
to the University's Oakdale, NY, location.
Through its community outreach, the
Office has been able to open lines of communication with community
boards, civic associations, local leaders, churches
and Borough Halls. The Office also oversees several annual
community related projects that help to address community
needs.
