• The Fund for BC High Volunteer

  Approximately 15,000 alumni consider a gift to BC High each year. Each one of them is well known to one or more of you. Tuition revenue has never supported the full cost of education at BC High and generous alumni philanthropy – past and present – has always provided the difference. Many current students would not be able to attend BC High if it were not for the ongoing support of financial aid through the The Fund for BC High. You, as graduates, know BC High best and can help care for its future. You can assist by personally contacting five to ten classmates each year to encourage their participation in The Fund for BC High. 

• Reunion Committee

  Help contact your classmates for special reunion gatherings every five years or sometimes more often than that – it is up to you and your class. Help track down missing classmates and update your class email directory.
  
  Reunions are held for the 5th year classes and then every five years following. Once graduates have reached their 50th year reunion they are encouraged to work with the Advancement office to hold annual or bi-annual luncheons to keep classmates connected. Some classes meet at Amrhein's in South Boston and some meet at The Freeport Tavern in Dorchester.
  
  To get involved contact Mike O'Brien at 617-474-5038 or alumni@bchigh.edu.

• Host a Regional Alumni Event

  You can give back to BC High by offering to host a reception for BC High alumni in your area. This could be a simple breakfast meeting at your office, dinner for a small group at your home, cocktails at an exclusive club or any type of event that helps to gather ten or more BC High alumni, parents & friends.
  
  If you have an idea about a future gathering in your area please contact Mike O'Brien at 617-474-5038 or at alumni@bchigh.edu.
