About Us — Our Mission

The Buffalo Grove High School Alumni Foundation was created to strengthen the lifelong bond shared by the Buffalo Grove High School community and to support fellow alumni and their immediate family members during times of financial hardship.

Since 1973, Buffalo Grove High School has brought together generations of students who have built lasting friendships, memories, and connections. The Foundation is committed to carrying that Bison spirit forward by giving back to the alumni community and helping those who may find themselves facing unexpected financial challenges.

Through fundraising events, including our annual Charity Golf Outing and Silent Auction, the Foundation brings alumni, friends, and supporters together to reconnect, celebrate our shared Bison pride, and raise funds that directly support our mission.

Our goal is simple: Bison helping Bison. By coming together as a community, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of fellow alumni and their families when they need it most.

Thank you for supporting the Buffalo Grove High School Alumni Foundation and for helping us continue the tradition of giving back to our Bison family.

No one has ever become poor by giving.

Thank you for your support
