Fairfax Parents and Friends Foundation

In 1998 The Fairfax Parents and Friends Foundation (FPFF) was established to provide much needed financial support to this historic public high school. The FPFF organized the well-known Melrose Trading Post, an antiques and collectibles flea market held in the Fairfax High parking lot, as an ongoing weekly fundraiser. Since 1998, through its share of Trading Post revenues, grant writing and other fundraising efforts, the FPFF has contributed over three million dollars towards supporting various clubs, programs and improvements not included in the school budget.
