DOVER-FOXCROFT – The Boston Red Sox Foundation, at the direction of Harold Alfond, has donated $100,000 to Foxcroft Academy’s Capital Campaign.
This latest gift in the “Securing the Tradition Campaign” brings the total raised in the campaign to $2.43 million, Jay Brennan, FA’s associate headmaster of institutional advancement, said Friday.
The financial gifts have supported more than $4 million of physical improvements at the academy: Pride Manufacturing Student Center; Ebersteen Art Center; new windows to the main academic building; Philpot Multimedia Computer Center; two new foreign-language classrooms; Ames Consumer and Family Science Lab; a 400-meter, eight-lane all-weather track equipped with electronic timing and photography; and new baseball, softball and soccer fields.
No local, state or federal tax dollars were used to make these improvements, according to Brennan.
“The generosity of the Boston Red Sox Foundation and Mr. Alfond is deeply appreciated by the entire Foxcroft Academy family,” Brennan said. These gifts help supplement tuition revenues and provide the very best academic facilities and programming for students, he added.
All are welcome to tour any of the new facilities by contacting Brennan or Amy Smith, admissions officer, at 564-8664.
