Jane Ragsdale Legacy Foundation Our Foundation was formed following the tragic death of Jane Ragsdale in the 2025 Kerr County floods. Here is where we continue Jane’s story…

She spent more than 50 years shaping lives as the Director/Owner of Heart O’ the Hills Camp for Girls. The purpose and objectives of the Jane Ragsdale Legacy Foundation, a non-profit organization (which is organized and operated for charitable and educational purposes as defined in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code) is to:

1. Raise monies for annual Jane Ragsdale Legacy Scholarship(s) for: (a) Campers, specifically girls 6-16 years old, attending a 2-4 week summer camp, and demonstrating financial need; and (b) College students attending Texas Woman's University or Schreiner University in the fall.

2. Contribute to charitable causes which support empowering young girls and women.

3. Support educational programs for campers and youth organizations, e.g. American Red Cross Serving the Texas Hill Country.

4. Support humanitarian causes in Central America, specifically Let Hope Begin Here Guatemala.

5. Raise monies for the possible rebuilding/relocating of structures damaged at Heart O’ the Hills Camp for Girls following the deadly, devastating Kerr County floods along the Guadalupe River on July 4, 2025. Board of Directors - Meredith Hill, Monique Cikota, Cristi Lee Ahern, Molly Dale Crow, Louann Nadalini, Kathryn Brown Horner, and Bailey McEachern

If you ever spent time with Jane, you would realize that she loved puns. She loved to receive puns. She loved to share puns. She was so quick-witted that sometimes the puns would pop out like gum from a gumball machine. So here we will share a little "Jane wink" or better "Wednesday wink" to get you through the rest of the week. Keep laughing. Keep smiling.

For decades at The Heart, someone would share an inspirational quote at the morning flag ceremony. Later that day, there would be time for reflection on the quote, and girls would share their interpretations. We call it the "Thought for the Day." It's a very simple Heart tradition, and Jane would love that we are sharing quotes on social media. She would be one of the last to chime in because she wanted her campers to speak up and share their thoughts. She listened. She acknowledged. She empowered. 💙❤️💚

Awareness can lead to early detection, and a simple reminder to schedule a screening may make a difference in someone's life.

For Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let's wear pink to support one another and encourage women to not skip a regular screening.

A special thank you to Joellan Barker Mullen for converting old cassette tapes to digital files of Jane singing on her porch from 1986 or 1987. Here is a popular Sunday song with a younger Jane playing and singing. Makes our hearts full to hear her voice again.

After spending all summer continuing his mom's legacy and his own love for summer camps at Camp Mac in Munford, AL with his family, we now want to shower Deen Howell with lots of birthday shoutouts and messages. Thank you for always working so hard in all that you do! Your mom is smiling down on you always!

Many happy returns on the day of thy birth...
