First Annual “Founders Celebration and Fundraiser” - March 11, 2008
WILLIAMSTOWN – The Fund for Sustaining Educational Excellence at Mt. Greylock Regional High School will hold its first annual “Founders Celebration and Fundraiser” on Friday, April 11, from 7:00 – 8:30 p.m., at The Williamstown Savings Bank, 795 Main St., Williamstown.
“Since its inception in 1996, The SEE Fund has awarded grants totaling more than $115,000 to support educational excellence at Mt. Greylock Regional High School,” said Lee Harrison, the SEE Fund Chairman, “and this is a great opportunity for people in Williamstown and Lanesboro not only to celebrate the founders’ vision but also to help us continue their work by strengthening the fund.”
In addition to wine, food, and student chamber music, said Harrison, “we’ll hear students and teachers discuss the difference the fund has made in their lives.”
Over the years SEE Fund grants have supported: Visits by guest authors & artists; construction of a greenhouse; printmaking and stained glass workshops; the purchase of equipment for fine arts, science, photography, and athletics; a peer-training program; and programs to promote interest in history and literature.
“The founders recognized that tight school budgets and insufficient federal and state support for education make it increasingly difficult for public schools to purchase the equipment and implement the programs that mean the difference between a good education and an excellent education,” Harrison noted. “And as we all know, our public schools face even greater obstacles today.”
Please RSVP by April 1: Call 458-9582 Ext. 149 or email theseefund@gmail.com. The SEE Fund is a fund of the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation and, accordingly, all donations are tax deductible. Credit cards donations are accepted. |
