From the Sachem Education Foundation website …
We’re off and running. Our inaugural event with the Sachem Education Foundation (SEF) was a success thanks to the passionate members of our Sachem Family who showed support. Now we grow it and make a difference in the lives of Sachem students.
We are grateful to our board and committee for their help and to the student artists who made our centerpieces and student performers and greeters who were the first smiling faces our guests saw when they walked in.
Thank you to Christopher D. Macchio, America’s Presidential Tenor, for singing at the event. Our honorees – Jim Nolan, Patti Trombetta, Chris Macchio, Louis Gregory, and Ray Nelson – embody what our organization stands for and what our school system was built on: a shared belief that our community and schools should be aligned.
The SEF committee will share information with school administrators on the next steps regarding the grant process. The money raised from the gala will help create programs within the schools that extend beyond the standard curriculum. We look forward to making a difference.
