3Ls Countdown to Graduation!!! Important Information
Class Gift Donations
Thanks to all those who have already contributed to the Class Gift. For those who haven't contributed yet, maybe this will help:
If we reach our community goal of $7500 and 75% participation, the family of one of our classmates has agreed to potentially match our contributions! That means for every dollar you contribute, King Hall will receive an equal contribution from the family if we reach our goals.
