In memory of our dad we ask you to support a fund set up in his name at Jazz Foundation of America, to support musicians in need who didn’t have the safety net of a teacher’s retirement. You can also donate to the SE Florida chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association. jazzfoundation.org/jackbragin/ - ThreadSky

my mom passed from dementia & Parkinson’s in 2022. It was a long goodbye. Three years later & it’s starting to get easier—I often feel her with me in my heart & it brings such comfort. From your posts your dad seemed amazing! Thinking about you & your family during this difficult time ❁❁❁

Thanks to everyone who has shared / donated in my father’s memory to support jazz musicians in need.

We all know what precarious lives artists lead. Jazz musicians are especially vulnerable and JFA do great work.

With your help our totals jumped by about 50% last week.
