Help Karissa raise money

For participating in Footsteps for Families 2021

Welcome to my personal fundraising page

Hello everyone,

I decided to join Team Kelsey because I want to help honour Kelsey's legacy. I remember Kelsey for her sweet, gentle and loving light. Her loss devastated our small community yet continues to inspire us all for the better.

From the main team page, written by mama Lana:
TEAM KELSEY was formed by my daughter Kelsey who passed away at the age of 13 to a rare and aggressive form of brain tumour.

Kelsey was kind, brave and fearless as she faced her terminal illness with the most hope and inspiration a 13-year old could give.  Even while enduring horrible treatments over a 15 month period, Kelsey formed TEAM KELSEY because she wanted to help other children battling cancer.

Description

Ronald McDonald House Charities South Central Ontario (RMHCSCO) serves as a regional resource for thousands of families whose children are being treated at local hospitals. Families typically come to us within 48 hours of their children's critical diagnosis, premature birth, or accident. These families' lives have been instantly turned upside down and our programs are committed to providing safe and comfortable accommodations, nutritious home-cooked meals, laundry services and specialized programming. 

By making a donation today, you will be helping to ensure that these comforts of home are available to provide a sense of normalcy when their lives are anything but, and ensure that the only thing our families need to focus on is each other.
