Donations Spring & Summer 2022
Many, many thanks to the alumni and friends of Arrowbear who donated to our Scholarship Fund. Donations from the Spring Newsletter and Reunion fundraiser totaled an astounding $28,052.86. That's a great start in building the scholarship bucket for Summer 2023.
Every donation is appreciated. We receive amounts from $10 to hundreds of dollars. It all adds up. Don’t worry about waiting until you can give more at some point in the future. Any amount makes a difference. It’s always a wonderful surprise to visit the mailbox and hear how you’re doing and what is keeping you busy. Please keep in touch and give when you can. We’d love to hear from you.
