Reunion Challenge

From CHS Class of 1964

The CHS Class of ’64, in partnership with the Alumni Association, would like to challenge CHS classes to raise funds to support Cleveland High School!

Donate a minimum of $10,000 in a calendar year to the CHS Alumni Association and your class will get a nameplate on the Reunion Challenge plaque!  You (or your class, if for a reunion) can specify where the donation can be allocated to for the school. As with all donations to the Alumni Association, your gift is tax-deductible. Donations can be made online or sent to the CHSAA mailbox at P.O. Box 94004, Seattle, WA 98124-9404.
*Donating directly to the school or the CHS PTSA does not go towards the Class Challenge or the Eagles 100.
