To me, the position of SBP is more than just planning events and leading collections. The role of SBP is one that represents the Westtown community and brings it together as one. The Quaker belief that there is “that of God in everyone” is something that I will use in my time as SBP and will strive to make everyone feel represented and a sense of belonging, making their time at Westtown the best it can possibly be.
