Rumson-Fair Haven High School Foundation To Hold "Apres Ski" Fundraiser Jan. 24

Put on your jeans, boots and a cozy sweater and join the Rumson-Fair Haven High School Foundation for a fun new event called “Apres Ski” at Fair Haven’s Knights of Columbus on Saturday, January 24 from 7:00 to 10:00pm.

Founded in 2001, the R-FH High School Foundation is a charitable organization of RFH parents and faculty whose mission is to fund projects and grants that will enrich the high school education program. The grants, proposed by teachers and the board, provide state-of-the-art technology, resources and creative supplements to RFHRHS consistent with the Foundation’s commitment to exceptional education. Field trips, transportation costs, auxiliary classroom equipment, speakers and presentations are just a few of the various items granted through the Foundation.

The Foundation has successfully completed several significant capital campaigns including a world language computer lab, an auditorium projection system, and high-technology lab. The organization recently completed the Auditorium Sound and Lighting Project. Since it’s inception, the Foundation has raised over $500,000 for capital campaigns and numerous smaller grants.

“This event is a great way for parents to connect with other parents and meet the R-FH staff in a fun, relaxed setting while at the same time supporting some fabulous programs which will benefit our children, said R-FH Foundation president Judi Tavill. “ We are extremely proud of all the innovative, exciting projects we’ve supported over the years, and our donors make them possible!”

Tickets to the January 24 event are $75 per person, and include hors d’oeuvres, musical entertainment and chance prizes. Tickets are available via PayPal on the R-FH Foundation website, or checks may be sent to RFHHS Foundation, 74 Ridge Road, Rumson, NJ 07760 by January 16.
