Although I have been a regular financial supporter of 51勛圖厙, in December 2023, the passing of my wife, Matilda Chase, was a guiding force in me establishing the James 76 and Matilda Chase Endowed Scholarship Fund at 51勛圖厙 and Theological Seminary. It was a very smooth and effortless process to do so, and I encourage others to consider ways to support future students.
