Schools receive $100K donation


SCARBOROUGH — The Scarborough School Department has received an offer of support from a longtime community member. 

Louis Fineberg has made a $100,000 donation to the newly organized Scarborough Education Foundation. The donation will establish the Louis and Tina Fineberg Trust, created by Fineberg in memory of his late wife Tina. Mr. and Mrs. Fineberg were married for 70 years and have been longtime Scarborough residents. The trust will provide for $10,000 allocations to the foundation each year for the next 10 years. The trust will also ensure that the nutritional program targeted to support students in need will continue to be funded.

Fineberg said he was intrigued by the school district’s innovative healthy food programs that recognize the important role that good nutrition plays in learning.

“I hope that this donation will encourage others to step up and contribute,” he said.
