Dear Community of Fillmore,

In 1991 Mrs. Raelene Chaney co-founded what was once Grad Nite Live. The purpose of Grad Nite Live is to have the students in our community celebrate a safe and sane graduation. This non-profit organization ran for over 26 years, it was not until Mrs. Chaney’s health took a turn that she could no longer run the non-profit.

At this time the nonprofit folded, students in our community for two years did not have the opportunity to participate in Grad Nite Live. Within the last two years Fillmore Safe Graduation, a nonprofit organization was re-established for the students in our community to celebrate one last evening together as a class before they venture off.

The goal of this organization is to bring back what Mrs. Chaney started years ago; the boat cruise. The class of 2020 will be the first class to have this opportunity in years.

In order for us to make that happen we need the help of our community. A large deposit is required to make this happen and unfortunately we don’t have the funds at this time. We are asking for the support of our amazing community to help us offer this opportunity to our students.

Please help us make this happen for the graduating class of 2020. For more information you may contact Jennie Andrade @ (805) 340-3601 or Alicia Hicks @ (805) 824-9962.

Sincerely,
Fillmore Safe Graduation
