Thanks for the heads up on this; I especially like the fact that there is an Instagram link which makes me, at least, feel more involved. What a generous offer on those matching funds!

Hello Winedale Alums -
When James died, many of us came forward with an immediate and beautiful response of “What can we do, how can we help?” Our notes, meals, texts, flowers, and acts of service have been a balm for Laurel and Jen over the past few weeks.
To honor James and the things he most valued, Laurel partnered with the Austin Community Foundation to establish the *James N. Loehlin Memorial Fund https://austincf.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=9976* (the Loehlin Fund, for short) in James’ honor. James worked tirelessly to kindle our identity as learners, Shakespeareans, teachers, artists, and community advocates; the Loehlin Fund will allow Laurel to continue his profound legacy for years to come.
*To that end, there is exciting news. Thanks to an anonymous donor, all contributions to the Loehlin Fund will be matched, up to $100,000, until December 31, 2023.*
You can find the link to donate directly to the James N. Loehlin Memorial Fund here: https://austincf.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/create/fund?funit_id=9976
Consider supporting the Loehlin Fund as we have the opportunity to continue James’ legacy and ensuring this matching fund is fully utilized.
You can join the journey @loehlinfund https://www.instagram.com/loehlinfund on Instagram for updates on fundraising efforts and future programming. You can also view a launch video on Vimeo https://vimeo.com/885508850?share=copy.
*Liz and I will be pitching in, and we hope you will too. *
Cheers, Robert Matney
