RCRF Disbursement Testimonial

2/23/2021

Today we were able to disburse some funds to a creator in need due to the recent freeze in Texas. Glad we were able to help! If you need help, please apply!

The recipient had this to say:

Thanks to the help we [a small publisher] received enough money to pay our rent without going in the hole during the recent freeze in Texas after our household lost several days worth of our regular employment. With this we can rest easy knowing our place in our home is safe and that our other bills can be met as well without succumbing to predatory loans. Its an immense help and we are massively grateful. <3

If you or someone you know is a creator and in need of financial help please apply today!

As our individual lives change with the times, so to does the RCRF change. Today we announce that several of our longstanding board members are stepping down and new members are joining.

Hal Greeberg continues to serve as our founder and president. He sends his warmest regards to the outgoing board members and we thank them profusely for their volunteer service in support of the TTRPG community.

As of this writing Steven S. Long, Lyz Liddel, and Rachel Ventura have stepped down from their duties as members of the RCRF board. They remain in good standing with the charity and we wish them the best in their future endeavors within and outside of our community.

As we say goodbye to Steven, Lyz, and Rachel we welcome several new board members and are excited to introduce Monica Marlow, Connor Bates, and Robert Adducci to the board. Monica as Vice President, Connor as Treasurer, and Robert as Public Relations.

Monica Marlowe is the 2015 Paizo RPG Superstar. Winning the contest launched her freelance game designing career. Her winning adventure, "Down the Blighted Path" and PFS scenario "Captive in Crystal" are available through Paizo. She’s publishing additional gaming materials under Marlowe House and through 3rd party publishers. Monica is also active in the ongoing education in gender, sexual, and racial equality in the gaming community. Driven by a desire to see a more diverse gaming community, Monica is passionate about building and maintaining a healthy and active gaming community, she joins RCRF Charity as Vice President to further that goal. Monica lives in southwest Ohio with her husband, Andrew, and 2 children, Kate and Thomas.

Connor Bates is only a recent contributor to the tabletop gaming scene with his recent (and upcoming) co-authorships at Legendary Games which can be found at www.makeyourgamelegendary.com. Besides writing Pathfinder material he is also an adapter of modules for Fantasy Grounds which is how he originally connected with Jason Nelson of Legendary Games. He loves the industry, he loves the people he has worked with and he is excited to contribute more to the community as a whole.

Connor has been a player, GM and lover of tabletop gaming since he got his first D&D 3.0 beginner box when he was in middle school. Technically before that was Baldur's Gate and numerous fantasy and sci-fi books, but it was reading through that adventure book and making characters that really set him on the life-long path. He still to this day, decades later, plays a weekly game of Pathfinder with one of his original crew.

Connor Bates is a licensed CPA in Oregon specializing in nonprofit accounting, auditing, consulting and tax preparation. He also previously served as a board member of his local Kiwanis club and is a staunch believer in the power of nonprofits and their benefit to society. He currently lives and works in the beautiful city of Portland Oregon with his wife and two kiddos (who will hopefully be future tabletop gamers as well, who knows!).

Robert Adducci is freelance RPG designer and community manager. He has writing and editing credits under Wizards of the Coast, Paizo, Ulisses North America, Schwalb Entertainment, Kobold Press, Alligator Alley Entertainment and Soldier Spy. He was a member of the D&D Guild Adepts and community manager for the D&D Adventurers League. Robert is a die-hard Dark Sun fan and the founder of the Burnt World of Athas website (Athas.org). Robert was born and lives in the deserts of Athas, aka Phoenix, AZ, with his wife, two little adventurers, and two animal companions.
