The Hinsdale Central Foundation was founded in 1991 as a means of providing support to the High School from alumni, parents, community members, and business leaders. Since its inception, the Foundation has supported student enrichment programs including Project Achieve, a grant to help students struggling academically, and the J. Kyle Braid Leadership Program.
The Hinsdale Central Hall of Fame was established to honor alumni and/or friends of the High School who have distinguished themselves through their accomplishments or service and exemplify the values and traditions of Hinsdale Central.
The Foundation also acts as a conduit for Alumni groups and reunions through the connection with Glenn Hahn, the administrator of the Hinsdale Central Alumni Association. Glenn’s contact information is Mr.glenn.hahn@gmail.com or 630-205-1544. For more information, follow this link to the Facebook Alumni page.https://www.facebook.com/RedDevilAlumni/
