To all of the Class of 1961,

It is with much joy I am letting you know that The Sunset High Class of 61 Scholarship Fund is underway. We have already received a number of donations. I'm blown away by the generosity of those who have already donated. We will be holding the donation period open until January 31, 2022.

After letting people know that their donations were tax deductable whether they donate in 2021 or 2022 I was cautioned about telling everybody that all of their donations are deductable - check with your tax preparer.

When we finish the donation period on January 31, 2022 we will then let Mike Prenger, who pledged to contribute $2 for every $1 donated up to a maximun of $7,500, how much to send in. When we have a final total we will publish a list of those who donated. We will not be listing the amount that each person donated, just their name will be posted.

I want to acknowledge that this idea of a scholarship fund was originally suggested by Bob Cravens back several years ago.Bob passed away before this idea came to fruition. So in advance, thank you to all who already donated and those who are planning to donate. This a wonderful thing we are doing for our Alma Mater. .

Happy Holidays to all.

BIll
