As the end of the year approaches, we are thankful for the many members of our community who have supported the Haverford Township School District Education Foundation over the past several years.
To those of you who have supported us with your time and money, we thank you!
As you consider your yearend charitable giving, we hope that you keep us in mind. For the last six years, we have funded over almost 100 innovative programs which have enriched the lives of students in the district. To view a full list of grants click here.
We also finished raising funds for our first large scale project, the building a state of the art TV studio at Haverford High School. The studio is built and the classes have started in the new multi-media curriculum, teaching journalists of tomorrow in all media: TV, radio, websites and print.
More good news! Just last year the foundation agreed to match donations up to $5,000 to raise money for WHHS, the radio station at Haverford High School. The first high school radio station in the country is in need of updated equipment and money to get back on the web, where it once was heard 24 hours a day. We are pleased to report that we have paid $4,725 in matching funds to date.
What next? We are looking to fund large scale projects in each of the elementary schools. Send any of your ideas for projects to
Info@HaverfordEdFoundation.org.
Neither our educational programs nor the TV studio and WHHS support would have happened without your continued help!
If you choose to make a donation (which is tax deductible), you can make a contribution in one of several ways:
- A donation in honor of a school district staff member. The staff member will be notified of your gift. If you have a young child, he or she can download a card from our website to color and give the staff member. Just click here to see the different cards that are available.
- A donation in memory of loved one. The foundation will notify the family members of the person you memorialize
- A donation to the WHHS radio station fund
- A donation to the S. Virginia Murphy fund which supports special needs students
- A general donation
Forms to make your donation can be found on the How to Help tab at www.HaverfordEdFoundation.org.

We wish you all a happy holiday season and a wonderful new year!
Sincerely,
The Board Members of the Haverford Education Foundation
