In need of an end of the year tax write-off or random act of generosity & kindness?!
If so, please consider donating to the KAS scholarship fund!

In 2025, the scholarship funds awarded 2 AHS student athletes with a one-time scholarship as well as gifted the first 3 recipients of 2024 with more money to match the updated scholarship total of $1,000/student. We sent a generous donation to the Rotary Club of Abington in a joint community effort to raise money to purchase and customize a vehicle for our Veterans, as well as, donations to a holiday collection drive for Friends of Foster Care and to the Abington Senior Center Giving Tree.

Your support is crucial to our efforts to continue our mission of awarding scholarships to Abington High School student athletes each year and giving to various programs in South Eastern Massachusetts as well as keeping Kerri’s memory and legacy alive.

Thank you in advance for your contribution. Your donation will make a positive impact on the Abington High School student athletes and local community programs. I can provide a tax ID.

The beauty of the score system is there’s always a possibility of crazy combinations, never did I think 6-4 or 2-0 would take it!!
