Donate to Karen Velazquez's Children Fund

Donation protected
Throughout Dr. Karen's inspiring life,  she gallantly stepped up to the plate as the breadwinner for her family of 8.  Even after the passing of her Husband Eric in 2009, she adopted 4 more children.

On Wednesday, March 24, 2021, Dr. Karen sadly passed away after a shocking stroke. Dr. Karen leaves behind 6 adopted children who were under her care, with ages ranging from 4 to 18.  The money will be made available to Dr. Karen's 23-year-old daughter,  who is helping care for her siblings in these challenging times. The money will also be used to cover funeral expenses.

Dr. Karen wanted nothing more in her life than to provide a loving and stable environment for these kids, and now we need your help to keep that dream alive.

Any monetary donation will be used to help these kids maintain the same level of nurture and autonomy that they were given under Dr. Karen. 

Any donation helps and is greatly appreciated by all of Dr. Karen's Friends and Family in these unprecedented times.

God Bless you
