 The Mort Künstler Endowment Fund

From the Timber Ridge School:
The Mort Künstler Endowment Fund was created to show our appreciation of Mr. Künstler’s continued commitment and dedication to the students attending Timber Ridge School

. The purpose of the endowment fund is to support the Mort Künstler Residence Hall, located on our campus, and the programmatic needs of the students living within this residence.

Mr. Künstler’s Endowment Fund was established with an initial $10,000 contribution. Additionally, for the entire length of the Künstler ornament program at Timber Ridge School, the School will contribute 20% of the proceeds from each year’s ornament sales to Mr. Künstler’s Endowment Fund.

At An Evening With Mort Künstler, watch Mr. Künstler create a one-of-a-kind sketch which will be auctioned to the highest bidder with all proceeds designated for the Mort Künstler Endowment Fund. Also, each guest will receive a 2012 My Friend, The Enemy ornament.

Seating is limited but is still available at $100 per plate. To reserve your seat with a Visa, MasterCard, or Discover card please call Troy Newbraugh, Director of Development at 540-888-9523 (local) or toll free at 877-877-3026.
