Funeral Expenses for Terence Denson, MHS Student

Terence Denson, a rising 10th grader at Midtown (formerly Grady) High School in Atlanta, died tragically in a shooting while visiting family just outside of Atlanta on June 21. Terence was an honor student and beloved by students and teachers. His family and friends are devastated and overwhelmed with expenses related to his funeral and burial.

 

Grady Cares is sponsoring this fundraiser in order to defray these costs and show the family love and support during this tragic time. We are working directly with the funeral home and our hope is to cover all the costs associated with laying Terence to rest.

 

Please help by donating to help Terence's family during this heartbreaking time.
