New Bedford Guide Your Guide to New Bedford and South Coast, MA
Did you go to New Bedford High School? Do you want to support current Whalers as they begin their time at NBHS? The New Bedford Young Alumni Association invites you to donate fifteen minutes of your time to submit a letter to an incoming freshman at New Bedford High School through our initiative, “Dear Freshman.”
We will be holding a letter drive at the downtown New Bedford Public Library 613 Pleasant St. on Saturday, August 6th . Stop by and tell your story between 2PM and 5PM with free stationary and welcoming company. We ask that alumni write words of encouragement, advice, or their personal experience to remind incoming freshman that anyone can succeed at NBHS and that they have a supportive community rooting for them as they start their own educational journey. We are accepting letters in all languages and particularly encourage submissions in Portuguese and Spanish.
If you are unable to volunteer your time on August 6th, we will be accepting letters at New Bedford High School, addressed or delivered to the Headmaster’s Office 230 Hathaway Blvd., New Bedford, MA 02740, until August 20 th . Please sign up using the form below. We’ve also included a template below for you to use when writing your letter.
