Class Challenges

Two classes have embarked on giving challenges: to celebrate class milestones, boost class support of Bonner & Prendie, and help to fund the Annual Appeal

Class of 1967 - In honor of the celebration of their 50th reunion, the Class of 1967 (both Bonner and Prendie) are attempting to raise $50,000 for the school! An anonymous donor from the class is willing to match up to $25,000 raised by the class, for a total of $50,000.

Starting with a great turnout at the reunion in November the class has already raised over $18,000 (from 55 donors) towards the $25,000 goal!

Class of 1987 - in honor of their 30th reunion, members of the Class of 1987 (both Bonner & Prendie) are attempting to raise $10,000 for the school. Tom Rafferty '87 P'17'19 has agreed to match up to $5,000 raised from his class for a total of $10,000.

Starting from their reunion, the class has raised $800 so far and will try and hit the $5,000 goal by the end of the fiscal year (June 30, 2018).

Best of luck to both classes! Bonner & Prendie can't thank you enough for the support!
