DONATE
THE NEED FOR FINANCIAL SUPPORT IS GREAT for so many wonderful reasons. The number one reason is that we have more students bravely choosing to participate in speech & debate. However, more student participation does not mean more funding.
OUR IMMEDIATE NEED IS FUNDING FOR COACHES! We started the year with 105 students across speech and debate, many of who have never done a co-curricular activity before, so the need for more helpful adults to guide them is great!
YOUR TAX DEDUCTIBLE DONATION WILL BE MADE TO THE AVHS SPEECH & DEBATE ALUMNI FOUNDATION ON BEHALF OF THE PROGRAM.
