ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

The mission of the BFHS Alumni Association is to foster a robust, connected and involved alumni community in order to preserve and promote the scholastic excellence, traditions and identity of Benjamin Franklin Senior High School. One of the main ways the Alumni Association enacts its mission is through the Alumni Impact Fund, formerly membership dues. Gift to School awards, Club and Classroom Grants, Reunion Seed money, and Scholarships are just some of the ways we strive to support our alma mater and foster connections within our alumni network. For more information on how the Alumni Impact Fund works.

We hope this interactive map will help to illustrate the wide-ranging impact of Ben Franklin alumni across the U.S. and even across the world -- and we know that wherever you go, you take a part of our school with you and represent us in ways that make us proud.
