Other Funding Targets

How does the Alumni Association decide its priorities, and where does the money go?

Fundraising: Though fundraising is secondary to its mission of support for alumni of the school, according to its 501(c)(3) charter, the Shorewood High School Alumni Association raises money for one purpose - to support the Shorewood Schools.

The priorities of the Alumni Association have previously not been set, as this 2010 is the first year of having raised money on behalf of the school.

At the beginning of the Alumni Association's fiscal year, July 1, all Alumni will be offered the opportunity to vote on their priorities for the direction of those funds. Following the success of the impromptu Costumer Fund support, it has become clear that financial priorities for the Alumni Association need to be set by its members, which is defined by anyone who graduated from Shorewood High School.

COSTUME DEPT SAVED by ALUMNI EFFORTS!!
