In late February an unauthorized individual registered on RCHSalumni.net and sent SPAM messages to some alumni.  We sincerely apologize for this.  John Ezenwa has been removed from the web site.  As you might imagine, and remember from when you joined, there are few ways to stop people from joining, and little way to authenticate their identity.  Rest assured, though, that your e-mail address and other personal information remain safe and secure.

We have now changed the registration process so that all new members must be confirmed by the site admin before they are given access. It is our hope for this site to be a benefit to alumni, not a center for annoying emails. If you ever receive any such emails, please notify Dave Gau (the site admin) immediately.

I have had several requests for information on how to make a financial donation directly to RCHS. This money will not get lost in the public school system, but will be put toward things that the students and school desperately need right now. (Remember when YOU were there? The school has never quite been run on a luxury budget.)

If you would like to help, from the smallest amount to your life's savings, you can do one of two things:

1.  Send a check to The Community Foundation and write RCHS Fund or Richmond Community High on the memo line. The address, for anyone who wishes to write a check, is: 

                                                    The Community Foundation
                                                    7501 Boulders View Dr.
                                                    Richmond, VA 23225-4047

2.  Go to the the TCF website at http://www.tcfrichmond.org and use the "give online" opton on the left hand side of the page.  Choose "other" from the drop down menu (unless they have since added RCHS as an option) and designate Richmond Community High School.  There will be a slight charge by the credit card company if one uses the onliine option, which will show up in a slightly lower amount given to the RCHS Fund.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me (Dave Gau, '85) and I will help find the answers!

Be sure to check out the list of reunions and events posted to the left in "Upcoming Events".  If you are a planner of a future event, be sure to read "Event planning information / add an event" for tips and information to make your event a success.
