AACHS is excited to announce a truly generous and meaningful matching gift opportunity from Mr. David Kahn, a member of the 220th Class.
David is committed to matching all donations this Giving Tuesday up to $50,000 to support our school’s continued growth—and he’s encouraging all of us to follow his lead.
“I now know that my education at Central was a major difference maker in my life. With a quality post-war middle-class upbringing, attending Central was the icing on the cake. The alumni who came before us were supportive, and we got the best education in the city. It’s important to me, and to all of us, that this legacy continues.”
David’s gift will be to support the Leading the Way Capital Campaign. The campaign aims to support the school’s critical infrastructure, enhance educational programs, and provide students with the tools and resources they need to succeed in today’s society in meaningful ways.
“It is critical that the students today and, in the future, have the opportunities we had. The facilities, the resources, and the education that Central provides will prepare them to become the leaders of tomorrow. That’s why I’m giving back now—and why I’m asking you to consider doing the same.”
The AACHS strives to make an impact on student success and consistently works closely with our educators to support educational initiatives at Central High School.
This would be impossible without the continued commitment from amazing donors like you.
Spread the word and get your classmates and friends to join you in supporting the AACHS this year.
Thank you!
