The FHS Alumni Association Board of Directors is very appreciative for the generous donations that were made by our alumni and friends of Fairhaven High School that made our 36th annual fundraiser a great success. We received $25,851 from 500 donors which was the second best year that we have had. The average donation from our generous donors was $51.70 which is the highest that we have had in 36 years.
In this pandemic year of 2020 we really weren’t sure what to expect, but our loyal alumni base came through once again. To view the complete List of Donors by visit http://fairhavenalumni.org/assets/articles/2020-DONORS-LIST_by_YOG.pdf
The Board of Directors pledge that they will invest all of your donations back into Fairhaven High School in the form of restoration projects, scholarships to deserving college bound seniors, as well as programs for students and staff that will enhance classroom instruction and benefit the largest amount of students.
Once again, thank you for your generosity and loyalty to Fairhaven High School.
