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.  

The Kody Hodge One-Act Festival. This will be the premier UIL One-Act Prep Festival in the State of Texas. With the help of our partners at Amarillo College, the Amarillo Area Foundation, and the Amarillo Convention and Visitors Council, we will host the Festival in Amarillo. The strength of a prep festival relies on the judges who are critiquing. We will have the best.  

New York Broadway Experience

Theatre is an experience. Some of the most magical experiences and the best the world has to offer theatre are found on Broadway. For some, this is an easy trip to be booked without a blink of an eye. For others, this is a dream that will never be actualized due to financial barriers beyond their control. The Kody Hodge Foundation wants to make that dream a reality for deserving AISD students.

This summer, the foundation will be taking 2 students from each participating AISD high school to New York where they will have an all-expense-paid trip to visit the Big Apple, experience live Broadway shows, and much more! 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.
