Support South Hadley Student-Athletes—Right From Your Driveway

Friends of South Hadley Athletics is excited to launch our Paw Print Fundraiser—a fun and visible way to show your Tiger pride while directly supporting our student-athletes.

Due to the recent override vote not passing, South Hadley Public Schools are facing significant financial shortfalls for FY27. As a result, athletic programs—along with other important academic and extracurricular opportunities—have already been reduced or eliminated at both the high school and middle school levels.

Friends of South Hadley Athletics is a community-led effort made up of parents, alumni, and local supporters committed to sustaining and strengthening athletic opportunities. These programs are more than just activities—they help students build teamwork, leadership, discipline, and school pride, while also bringing our community together.

While there is currently a proposal under consideration to support the FY27 school budget, that decision is not yet final and must still be approved at Town Meeting. Even if approved, it would only provide a short-term solution, and long-term funding for athletics remains uncertain.

That’s why this fundraiser matters.

For just $50, our team will paint a bold orange paw print on your driveway using durable exterior paint. It’s a simple way to show your support and make a lasting impact in our community.

Every paw print helps provide critical funding for equipment, uniforms, and opportunities for our student-athletes—both now and in the future.

How it works:

Reserve your paw print through this page
Provide your address and preferred date
We take care of the rest!

** Please make sure your driveway is clear and accessible on your scheduled date. 12-48 hour notice will be given prior to painting.

Whether you're a parent, alumni, or community supporter, your support helps ensure that South Hadley Athletics continues to thrive.

Show your Tiger pride. Support our athletes. Help build a stronger future.
