In Loving Memory of Caleb McGloin

Donation protected
On May 8th, 2025, 17-year-old Caleb McGloin passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind a loving mother, family, and community who are devastated by his loss. Caleb was a bright, kind, and creative soul whose presence brought light to those around him. His passing has left an unimaginable void in the hearts of everyone who knew and loved him.
His mother is now navigating the profound grief and trauma of losing her son. In the days and months ahead, she will require extensive mental health support to begin healing from this life-altering loss. Therapy, counseling, and other related care are critical, but they come at a high cost.
We are raising funds to help cover these essential supports and ease the financial burden during this incredibly difficult time. Your generosity will directly assist with:
• Trauma-informed therapy and mental health care
• Related expenses that arise from her healing journey
Any unused funds will be put toward a memorial initiative to honor Caleb’s memory — something his mother hopes will also help other families and children who are struggling. While the exact form of this memorial is still to be decided, her goal is to create something meaningful that turns this tragedy into a source of hope for others.
No parent should have to face this kind of pain alone. Thank you for your compassion, your support, and for helping us surround Caleb’s mother with love and care as she begins to heal.
