UHS Grad Night Sustained Fund

The UHS Foundation and Alumni Association has created a sustainable fund to support the annual Senior Grad Night Party, which keeps seniors safe and celebrates their achievements.

Purpose: To provide matching funds for the annual Senior Grad Night event and to ease the fundraising challenge on the UHSPA and senior families every year.

Award Structure:

• UHSFAA will provide a match of up to $3,000 annually to specifically support expenses related to the Grad Night event
• In other words, if parents collectively give $3,000, there will be a match of another $3,000 from UHSFAA

Fund Stewardship:

• 80% of all donations made to the fund during a school year will go toward that year's Grad Night event
• 20% will be held in an interest-bearing fund by UHSFAA for future use
• Example: If parents collectively give $3,000, $600 will be held but a matching $3,000 will still be provided for a total event budget of $5,400

Event Purpose: The event must continue to be designed to keep seniors off the street, celebrating in the safety of a contained UHS campus venue.

Geographic Scope: University High School (Arizona)

Target Population: UHS Seniors and their families

Important Note: UHSFAA will NOT be responsible in any way for the planning of the event and will not be held liable for any activities related to the event. Funds will be made available each year to the UHS Principal who will identify the event planner (likely a committee of senior parents) and will direct funds accordingly.
