And quite a few associates/committee, members.
We are ALWAYS looking  to grow and gain new
ideas and fresh suggestions so we invite you to introduce
yourselves to us to become more involved!
The help of others is tantamount to our success!
We always need help with our Annual Fundraisers...
and our Fall Fundraiser  on October 5th at the Raven and The Peach
would not have been as successful as it was with out our special helpers!

The Board acted as a fabulous team but big thank you's
go to others who helped us with the event with advice, volunteer time,
monetary donations, and/or solicitation of great items for our
Deal or No Deal Game and the Silent Auction
including:
Karen Gibbens, Carolyn Miller, Nikie Sourlis, Maura Beyer
Kari Rallo, Kristin Gould, Katie Johnson, Jennifer Conklin, Andy Elder, Allison Destefano, Siobhan Hogan, Tracy Turi, Jackie Guido, Beth Giannato, Lisa Taffin, Katie Shanley, Lisa Goodwyn, Beth Sillen, Pat Cassidy-Zimel, Eileen Luby, Nan Bryan, Ann Rossbach, Heather Heard, Nancy Bach, Allison Friedel
and the amazing
Bill Grillo and Chris Alworth for dealing with the music and sound system, among other things.
Additionally, the student musicians:
Jessica Eckhoff, Shannon Corsi, Sophia Maita, Jack Newsome et al, and Jake Tavill that played were wonderful, and Strumberry Pie (who closed the evening on a high note(no pun intended...sort of)) rocked the room!
The Key Club volunteers were amazing too!!!
Also, big thank you to Lynne Ward for popping in to snap our photos
(on an overly booked night)
For the Two River Times!!!


We look forward to wonderful future events as well.
Join us!!!




WELCOME to The R-FH High School Foundation (RFHHSF) Blog!

Hello!
Let us start by introducing ourselves to you!

Founded in 2001, the R-FH High School Foundation is a charitable organization whose mission is to fund projects and grants that will enrich the high school education program.  The grants, proposed by teachers, provide state-of-the-art technology, resources and creative supplements to RFHRHS consistent with the Foundation’s commitment to exceptional education.  

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

Our new  BLOG will have updates on all foundation activities and events . Here, we are  able to include a more comprehensive illustration(including exciting visuals) of what the foundation is working on, what we have accomplished to date  and 
how YOUR contributions are making a difference!
