Friends of McPherson (FOM) is a non-profit organization which works to assist McPherson Elementary School in Chicago's Lincoln Square neighborhood. By securing, raising and arranging funds and capital through fundraising activities, including special events, solicitations and grant requests, FOM strives to support the school's academic and extra-curricular programs. FOM works to enchance learning opportunities for students and fosters relationships between parents, community members and school staff. We endorse McPherson as an exceptional school and encourage neighborhood families to embrace its many enticing facets. FOM is made up of parents, teachers and community members with this mission in mind.
