Mission of the Fund

A helping hand for tomorrow’s leaders…

The Phil Hargett Memorial Fund was established to help students in need at Union Academy. Phil Hargett was a man with a lifelong mission of helping the community and making a difference. We hope that this fund will create a real and lasting change in the world. The donations that are received help our very own students at Union Academy eat lunch, play a sport, attend a field trip and ultimately be a better student.

How has the PHMF made a difference in the lives of the children at Union Academy?

In 2015-2016, we assisted 13 families totaling $18,175.86. So far in 2016-2017, we assisted 12 families, totaling $6,430.86. We did this in the following ways:

• 5 students participate in athletics
• 26 students with their activity fees
• 12 middle school students have gone on overnight field trips
• 22 students have a hot lunch every day

The Phil Hargett Memorial Fund Committee:

• Beth Hargett
• Christen Hargett
• Cissy Brewer
• Cheryl Austin
• George Hilbish
• Katie Stewart

The fund is managed by volunteers and there is not an operating budget. When we established this fund we wanted all money raised to go directly to the students and be able to make a difference in their education.
