CLASS GIFT.
|
Many of us feel honored to have graduated from our “hallowed
institution.” We looked for ways to give back to HMHS and
today’s youth. We recall Miss Gist’s admonition: “If you’re
the ‘cream of the crop’, I’d hate to see the ‘skimmed milk’.”
Nonetheless, we did survive, and now it is time to give back.
Baird Foster is to be commended for spear-heading this project and
for researching and establishing the Class of 1956 Scholarship for
Further Education in Music. Not only did he accomplish that
mission, but also he provided that information to the Haddonfield
Alumni Association (HAS) so that other classes would not have to
“reinvent the wheel” and could learn from our experience. |
|
Our 50th Reunion Class Gift to HMHS of
$5,600
was made in October of 2006. Up to the March 2007
beginning of our "Matching
Gift Challenge", an additional
$620
was donated to our Music Scholarship Fund. |
