The FSSG ex-Pupils Association (New York Metropolitan Area) was founded in 1989 by a group of concerned FSSGians who wanted to play a more active role in supporting the school, its teachers and pupils. The group started with 6 members and has now grown to 18 active members.
Over the years, the association has undertaken a number of fund-raising activities. These include annual subscriptions, special donations from friends of the association, annual thanksgiving services, group outings, dinners/dances and luncheon sales. Proceeds have gone to the school to be used in a variety of ways including rehabilitation of the school after the war to benefit the students and teachers.
Past accomplishments include:
♥ Jointly funded renovation and reparation of the junior block of the school. The school was badly damaged during the devastating war that went on for 11 years in the country.
♥ Academic scholarships awarded to students with financial needs.
♥ School supplies and books donated from friends of the school.
♥ Reparation of school security wall.
♥ Partial payment of teachers’ salary
