The 1980s Club for Roeper School

Exciting News! The Dwayne McDuffie Foundation was recently established to celebrate the superhero luminary's lasting impact on comics and animation including Static Shock, Damage Control, Ben 10, and Justice League Unlimited. Recent recognition at the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History & Culture highlights the late McDuffie's unparalleled influence.

Join us on February 13 to honor Roeper alumnus McDuffie on his humanitarianism and professional achievements. The foundation will present the inaugural Dwayne McDuffie Genius Grant Award to a Lower School student, showcasing his commitment to excellence and inclusion.

All, new chapter in the design for a difference campaign - Jimmy & Vi’s kitchen - we all remember these two, who took care of us and fed us, drove us, comforted us, corrected us-

Let’s help get that kitchen done by contributing to the fundraising match - there’s a three year pledge term . . .

Dear friends,

It's that time - time to start thinking about your year-end giving.

I'm not sure I'm running a match this year, but if I do, it will cover donations from October 1 through year-end.
