Thank you for spreading the word, Rob! 

 

Let’s each think of 10 people we know – friends, family members, colleagues, Longhorn fans – who might not already be in the loop for knowing about James and Shakespeare at Winedale and invite them to consider making the Loehlin Fund one of their charitable gifts for the end of 2023.  The matching funds make this a really special opportunity. 

 

Best to all,

Subject: Matching fund until 12/31: donate to the Loehlin Fund

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 (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 on Instagram for updates on fundraising efforts and future programming. You can also view a launch video on Vimeo

Liz and I will be pitching in, and we hope you will too. 

 

Cheers,
Robert Matney
