Hendrickson
2024 Senior Celebration
The Hendrickson High School Senior Celebration, aka Project Graduation, for the Senior Class of 2024 will be held on graduation night May 31, 2024. Senior Celebration is an alcohol-free, drug-free, all night, lock-in event. All of the approximately 500+ seniors are invited and encouraged to attend. The purpose of the event is to give HHS seniors a safe place to celebrate with their friends and classmates and enjoy a variety of entertainment, food, and prizes on their graduation night. The cost to host this event is about $50,000. We have organized various fundraisers throughout the year, but in order to reach our goal, we need considerable support from our community and local businesses. We are asking for monetary donations or goods and/or services to be used for the lock-in or other events for the rest of the year.
We would greatly appreciate a donation from you or your establishment to help us. The Senior Celebration Committee is part of the Hendrickson High School Hawk Foundation, and is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and as such, your donation is tax deductible. All sponsors will be acknowledged at all events hosted by Senior Celebration, our website, and social media..

Process
Every company or foundation handles their matching program differently. Sometimes employees must fill out a company form and offer proof of the donation. Others require a mini-grant application and more specific documentation from the charity. Still others collect your contribution through periodic payroll deductions, and the total gift – including the corporate match – is sent directly to Senior Celebration 2024 aka Project Graduation by the company/foundation.
No matter the process, we are ready to help make things easy!
1. Contact your company or foundation to determine their specific steps for matching
2. Email us if you need Senior Celebration 2024 aka Project Graduation to complete a form, send a letter, or assistance.
