Final Memory Making for 22yo Jenny

My name is Cari and I’m fundraising for 21 year old Virginia Jenny & her family. In January 2024, after fighting a rare & aggressive cancer, Virginia was told by her oncology team she has 6 months to live. We hope and we pray it’s longer. With your generosity, we can make Virginia Jenny‘s wishes come true and provide practical support to her parents, Jillian and Kevin, during this time of remarkable challenge and resilience through love.

Thank you for sharing, giving, and for your love to Virginia and her family.

—Cari Strickland, cousin to the family
