Coope has shown her leadership skills through an array of extracurricular activities, including as volunteer ambassador at her school, a volunteer at the Ronald McDonald house, participation in sports programs, and as an officer through the Best Buddies program at her school in which she ensures special need students have a place in after school programs.
