Last week Tim Rooney and his family suffered the unexpected loss of his oldest son Fergus. Tim needs our help.

Those of us who know Tim understand what an extraordinary person he is. Through his art and music, he has inspired and uplifted countless students with his creativity, encouragement, and positivity. He has a rare gift for making others feel seen, valued, and capable. The love and energy he pours into his classroom has touched so many lives in our community.

Now it’s our turn to show up for him.

We are raising funds to help ease the financial strain during this incredibly difficult time—covering immediate expenses and helping provide stability and support for Tim and Fergus’ younger brother in the months ahead. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this fundraiser to help us surround him with the care and support he so freely gives to others.

Let’s come together to lift him up with love, compassion, and generosity when he needs it most.

Celebration of Life for Fergus: Saturday 3/7, Ale Works 11a-3p
