Friends of Farnsworth
Friends of Farnsworth (FOF) is a non-profit organization, established in 2005 to help support the school. Originally called the “Farnsworth School and Campus Park Foundation'', the mission was focused on campus and grounds, but with the success of the new playground the group was renamed - but has been dormant for several years. Come be part of re-establishing this group and charting it's new course!
Membership is open to anyone who wants to support Farnsworth. ($5 membership for individual, $25 for business ). Details on how to join on the way!
