Fundraising
The FCHS Athletic Boosters raise money for more than 700 student-athletes at Falls Church High School. All money raised directly benefits our athletes, our coaches and the facilities on which they practice and play. Boosters pay for: athletic equipment; uniforms and gear; facility items; field maintenance; awards and scholarships; and team invitationals and coach’s conferences.
When you support the FCHS Athletic Boosters, you help our athletes compete on a level playing field.

Annual Fundraising Events
Athletes will participate in an email donations campaign. Athletes are asked to gather emails of family and friends to request a donation. This campaign is necessary to support the ongoing expenses for every team at Falls Church High School, as they are not fully funded through the county.
