Welcome to the Thornton Alumni Legacy Fund’s home on web!
To learn more about our golf outing, please click on the 3rd Annual 2008 Wildcat Open banner near the top of this page.
The Thornton Alumni Legacy Fund, whose goal is to cultivate change for the benefit of current and future students at Thornton Township High School, is an independent 501(c)(3) organization. TALF has raised more than $250,000 since its founding just 4 years ago and now boasts an endowment approaching $200,000. Other funds raised have already been awarded to reinstate dormant activities that were victims of funding cuts. For example, TALF has revived the yearbook, purchased world history maps, restarted a girls' dance group, refurbished the auditorium, provided technology for the science labs, and much more.
Additionally, TALF created and continues to bring the Distinguished Speaker’s Series to TTHS several times each year.
The Speaker’s Series invites alumni to return and talk with students about their keys to their success, and provides insight into their chosen profession.
TALF's long-term goal is to create a permanent endowment of $1 million for the high school. For all donations received, 20-30 percent go towards meeting immediate needs (such as the yearbook), and 70-80 percent go towards building the endowment.
We invite you to look through our website in order to learn more about us. And if you are interested, please contact us to ask questions, sign up for our newsletter, and join our efforts. We look forward to hearing from you!
