Fairhaven High School Class of 1976
"For those that have been, light the way for those who are coming, so all of us may see further."
As of December 30th 2011
FAIRHAVEN — Donations to the Light-a-Light campaign topped $20,000 on Dec. 23,
marking two consecutive years that donations have topped that level.
And the fundraising for 2011 isn't yet over. Last year, for the first time in 26 years,
the FHS Alumni Association's annual Light-a-Light Fundraising Campaign surpassed the $20,000
plateau. The 2010 Light-a-Light Fundraiser raised a total of $21,330 from 798 donors.
This total came very close to the $22,248 record established in 1985,
which was the very first Light-a-Light.

To the Editor:
On behalf of the Fairhaven High School Alumni Association I would like to sincerely thank all of the alumni and friends who gave so generously to our 26th annual Light-a-Light campaign. We had a tremendously successful season, raising $21,100 from 796 donors, which exceeded last year's donations by $2,500.
These funds will allow the Board of Directors of the FHS Alumni Association to continue funding restoration projects, scholarships, and provide teacher mini-grants during the next school year. We are continually amazed by the strong sense of connection that our alumni base demonstrates each year with their generous donations, especially during these difficult economic times. We received 40 individual donations of $100 or more, which is an all-time record.
It is clear to us that there is an extremely strong bond between our alumni base and their alma mater, a truly unique high school.
Thank you very much!
Bob Foster '66
President

"The 2009 Light-a-Light drive was the most successful one that we've had since 1985, our first year. On behalf of the FHS Alumni Board of Directors I want to sincerely thank all of you who donated to our only fundraiser of the year. FHS Alumni Association is a totally volunteer operated organization made up of dedicated alumni who care about FHS and are motivated by their love for this unique school and are constantly motivated by the tremendous response that we get from alums across the nation. We have very little overhead, and 95% of the Light-a-Light donations go directly into programs and activities at Fairhaven High School." - Bob Foster-"66 Alumni President
