This week the reunion committee on behalf of Moorhead High School's Class of 1966 made a donation of $1,052 to the Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation. Cynthia Sillers, Sandie Brager and Roger Kjos from the Class of 1966 presented the contribution to Lisa Borgen, chair of the Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation board of directors.

The Class of 1966 is challenging other classes of Moorhead High to make similar donations to the newly established Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation.

Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation is an independent, nonprofit organization established to support the needs of current and future students in Moorhead Area Public Schools and create an endowment to support the schools in the future. 

On Feb. 9, Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation will be part of Giving Hearts Day 2017. The foundation wants students in Moorhead Area Public Schools to receive milk/snack break and meals, even if their families are struggling to make ends meet. Contributions to the Legacy Foundation’s Food for Thought campaign will fund this effort.

On Giving Hearts Day, match funding from generous donors magnifies the impact of your giving! More than one-third of students in Moorhead Area Public Schools are eligible for free or reduced-price meals, but this program doesn’t cover the cost for elementary milk and snack break or fill the gaps when families’ financial situations change and are unable to pay for meals.

We invite you to give back on Giving Hearts Day, Thursday, Feb. 9 to the Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation’s Food for Thought Campaign. We are excited to be part of this amazing event, sponsored by Dakota Medical Foundation, Impact Foundation and the Alex Stern Family Foundation.

To make a secure online contribution that day, go to www.givingheartsday.org. Give from the heart, and help the Moorhead Schools Legacy Foundation gift the needed funds to provide milk/snack and meals to those students and families in need!
