What do your dollars go towards?
The Kody Hodge Foundation is dedicated to celebrating the life of Kody Hodge. What better way of doing that than making his passion our own? To say “Kody loved theatre and acting” somehow seems inadequate—Kody was theatre. He was always more at home on stage than off.
The Kody Hodge Foundation strives to support theatre students, help them hone their craft, and encourage them to pursue the stage after high school. To achieve this, KHF will provide the following;
The Kody Hodge Scholarship. KHF will issue a $2000 scholarship to a graduating senior who plans on majoring in Theatre at Amarillo College.
Retreat to the Rockies
Theatre is a craft.
Like every craft, theatre requires the constant honing of one’s skill. This is not limited to actors. We recognize the importance of professional development for directors. For this reason, we have introduced the “Retreat to the Rockies” where we take a small group of Texas theatre directors to the Rocky Mountains for an intensive training retreat. During this retreat directors will partake in intimate hands-on sessions taught by the top UIL respondents in Texas.
Throughout the trip, we help handle everything, from transportation, to dinner, to lodging. The best part? The retreat counts as a continuing education credit!
To help us support these passionate students with a trip of a lifetime, please visit our donation page or contact The Kody Hodge Foundation to find ways you can help make this happen.
“I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.
~Oscar Wilde”
