2017-2018 Foxcroft Fund!
With the introduction of the Foxcroft Fund last year, we were overwhelmed with the response from our alumni and friends. With your support we surpassed our goal of $100,000 by $6,145 with over 440 donors. THANK YOU! Here are few items purchased through your donations that directly impacted our students.
Technology: 100 Adobe Creative Cloud licenses @ $24.50 each
Tech. Ed.: 6” Jaw Width Iron Drill Press
Endowment: Gifts to your individual class funds helping to secure the
future of Foxcroft Academy
Horizon Scholarships: Giving students the chance to pursue educational
opportunities outside the walls of Foxcroft Academy
Cheering: New Pony mascot costume
Music: Overhaul of 2 pianos donated to FA
Last year, our class challenge, uniquely named the “Pony Race”, was initiated and accepted! The objective was to see if every graduating class would accept the challenge of raising the same amount in donations as the year they graduated. (For example: the class of 2001 raised $2,001) There were 90 gifts, a whopping 20% of total donors, with gifts of just over $14,000 (included in above figure). This year’s challenge will run through 6/30/18, so consider yourself challenged. if we maximize participation. Challenge your classmates, challenge your siblings, your friends and don’t forget company matching gifts if your employer does so*.
Get fired up for the competition and watch for monthly updates on our Facebook Page.
Take the work out of giving by joining the Maroon & White Club! A mere $10 per month will give you a $120 gift for the year! Just check the recurring gift box on the donation page.
