KHS Learning for Life Fund
In 2005, at a little birthday gathering of friends, we raised $2500 for my high school alma mater's Career Pathways program. In the ten years that followed we raised over $420,000! I've taken a break the last few years, but last week, on May 4 (my birthday) while working an event in our store with a small gathering of friends and customers, we did it again. Small. Simple. Spontaneous. Organic. And generous. So.... in that spirit, I've decided to ask my friends to consider making a contribution towards the Killingly High School Learning for Life Fund. EVERY dollar goes directly to helping provide opportunities to my home town's young people. ANY amount is appreciated.
I hope my fellow alumni and members of the community will help, and share this as well. It's the responsibility of all of us to make sure those that follow us have greater opportunities and experiences than we had.
Thanks to everyone who's participated and donated in the past. And thanks to the young people who continue to work hard, achieve new goals and go on to do incredible things. We're all very proud of you!!!
