GET INVOLVED

GET INVOLVED

The success of Project Graduation relies on parent, guardian and community participation. Here are four ways to help what has become a proud Westborough Tradition:

  • Come to the Annual Organizational Meeting, Monday January 27, 2025 at 7 PM  WHS Library.
     

  • Volunteer to Work on a Committee.  Parents comprise the bulk of our volunteers on various committees.
     

  • Make a donation. The total cost of the event is $20,000. Each year we ask families for a donation of at least $50 to help defray the cost of the event.  Donations made by or on behalf of a graduating senior are tax deductible for the amount above the suggested donation amount of $50. Donations made by all others are fully tax deductible.
     

  • Thank our community donors. Visit our sponsor page and let our donors know that you appreciate their donations, for without their support, this opportunity for our seniors would not be possible.

VOLUNTEER NIGHT OF

We need adults to serve as chaperones during the night.  Senior Parents are not able to volunteer but ANY OTHER adult is able to. Doesn't matter if your child is a high school student. They can be a graduate, younger student or just a community member looking to give back!

This is a great opportunity for parents of Juniors to "pay it forward" as next year's junior parents will volunteer for your student.

There are two shifts: 9:00 PM to 1:00 AM, and 1:00 AM to 5:00 AM

DONATE

The total cost of the event is $20,000.

PROJECT GRADUATION relies solely on donations from families and businesses that care equally about the safety of our graduates and the importance of celebrating education.

 

We will always take monetary donations.  As the event gets closer, we will also be soliciting snacks and drinks.  Please feel free to check back and take a look at our signup genius.

Each year we ask families for a donation of at least $50 to help defray the cost of the event.  Donations made by or on behalf of a graduating senior are tax deductible for the amount above the suggested donation amount of $50. Donations made by all others are fully tax deductible.
