One item should be of note.  These are Volunteer positions and are not paid.  Unfortunately the fund does not bring in enough revenue annually to support a paid staff.

Thank you.

I hope people step up to this task. A very worthwhile effort. I also hope that whatever  issues the Kufalk's are having can be worked out for the best.

Thank you.  If life has taught us anything it's that it will go on.  There will be ups & downs, there always are.  We'll do fine, passing on the fund will help us with that.

Thank you Dave.  Here's what I wrote on the wera forum, it holds true universally...

Folks,

Thank you all so much for your support in this. We weren't sure how it would be received. This wasn't an easy decision to come to, but ultimately it came down to the fact that we couldn't maintain Family, Careers & the Fund. Something had to give, and well, without the first 2, the 3rd wouldn't stand much hope.

Managing the fund, meeting everyone, working with people and helping people has been a powerful and life altering experience. One which I'm eternally glad that we were able to have.

We do sincerely hope that the fund can carry on in one form or another.

Also, please understand, the fund doesn't just need one person. It needs a leader and a TEAM of people that can carry out the vision and goals of that leader. So if you're thinking about helping but don't have the ability to commit to being that leader, we want to hear from you!

Thank you all for everything...

-Jeff & Jen Kufalk
