Delores Barr Weaver Legacy Fund joins Freed to Run - Jax Daily Record
Philanthropist Delores Barr Weaver is offering a multiyear challenge grant to encourage donations to the Nov. 17-18 Freed to Run Challenge, the proceeds of which will benefit Jacksonville Area Legal Aid’s Shelter for Elders endowment to fund legal aid for older adults facing housing instability.
The Delores Barr Weaver Legacy Fund will match $25,000 in donations to the 2023 Freed to Run Challenge, provided the event raises at least $75,000 from other donors.
In addition, over the next two years, the fund will match a gift of up to $25,000 from a single donor each year provided that at least $50,000 can be raised from additional donors.
The challenge grant is intended to help the Freed to Run Challenge meet its $100,000 fundraising goal each year.
