History Repeats Itself with NHS Class of ‘63 Gift to Needham Education Foundation

sandyjacobs, Neighbor

History repeats itself, thanks to the NHS Class of '63! Members of the Needham High class of 1963 celebrated their 50th reunion with a donation of $3,063 to the Needham Education Foundation. The NEF was founded by members of the class of 1939 who established the NEF with $3000 from their 50th reunion fund. Following in their footsteps, the class of 1963 collected $3,000 and added an additional $63 to signify the class of ’63. The effort was spearheaded by Christine Hoffmeister, daughter of Ralph Leader who founded NEF.

The NEF is an independent, community-based, not-for-profit organization that raises funds for the enrichment of public school students in Needham. To learn more about the NEF and how you can support it, please visit www.nefneedham.org.
