Double the Impact

[link removed]

John,

As this year draws to a close, I'm reaching out today to talk to
you about The Actors Fund-and to share a little bit of my own
story.

You have the special opportunity today to make a donation that will
have double the impact thanks to The Actors Fund's Matching Gift
Challenge. Please make a tax-deductible gift today to further The
Fund's essential programs and services!

During this devastating time, so many people in the performing arts
and entertainment community are suffering. Across the country,
dancers, costume designers, directors and musicians are facing
desperate circumstances.

In the midst of this difficulty, The Actors Fund steps in and says,
"We got you." I know because I've personally
experienced it.

In 1992, after I had done The Wiz and Ain't Misbehavin', I
did the practical thing: I put some money away, knowing that someday I
would grow older and need it. But then my life partner of 17 years was
diagnosed with AIDS-related Lymphoma. I spent the last four years of
his life caring for him, and gradually...my savings dwindled.

I didn't know where else to turn, so I called The Actors Fund
and explained my situation. They immediately stepped in and offered me
help with every item on my list.

When I needed assistance, The Actors Fund was there. At my lowest
point, when I couldn't see beyond the horizon of despair and I
felt alone, The Actors Fund stepped in to give me the support I
desperately needed.

When you make a donation to The Actors Fund today, you will give
someone else the support that I received. Even better, your gift will
be matched up to $50,000!
