Welcome to Albany Fund for Education

Gala

Save the Date This year's event will be help on Wednesday October 20, 2010 at Dale Miller's Restaurant and will honor SEFCU and Rob LaRocca as founder of the Albany Charity for Arts in Education. We look forward to seeing you there! 

Support AFE  Since 1999,  AFE has held an event each fall to honor an individual and organization that have made a difference for our schools. These events also serve as a primary source of AFE funding. In 2009, with the help of many, we raised almost $10,000. 

If you are interested in supporting AFE by joining the 2010 Gala honorary committee, donating food, or becoming a sponsor, please contact Theresa Swidorski at (518) 459-4731 or Swidorski2000@aol.com.

We are especially grateful to our 2009 sponsors, the restaurants that provided fabulous foods, and the organizations and individuals that contributed to our silent auction.
