The Jack Vasel Memorial Fund was started in April, 2011, in memory of Jack Vasel, son of Tom Vasel. 

Tom is an influential voice in the board gaming hobby, and the community rallied around him in his time of need. Amazed by this generosity and kindness, Tom was determined to help others who might undergo similar tragedies. 

The Fund was formed to collect and distribute financial assistance to members of the public who are part of the gaming community and who have suffered personal hardship not of their own making. It is our hope and prayer that the Jack Vasel Memorial Fund will provide Jack with a legacy to help out the entire gaming community. 

The Fund is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charity.  Download the Fund's most recent IRS 990 report.
