The 26 Foundation

For my Birthday this year, I am encouraging people to donate to The 26 Foundation in honor of Jackie Wnuk, as this May is also the 3rd anniversary of her death. 

Founded in 2022, The 26 Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting young individuals who have experienced the loss of a parent. Our mission is to ensure that anyone in their 20s or younger facing parental bereavement has access to the grief counseling, resources, and community they need to navigate their loss and build a hopeful future.

Our foundation goes beyond financial assistance. We actively work to raise awareness about grief as a life-changing journey, one that deserves attention, understanding, and support. Through partnerships with mental health professionals, community members, and organizations, we continue expanding access to quality care and resources for those who need it most.

At The 26 Foundation, we believe in the power of empathy, resilience, and collective support. Your contribution, no matter the size, directly impacts young individuals as they navigate the complexities of grief and build a future shaped by love and remembrance.

Together, we can create a more compassionate world for those who have lost a parent.
