Fundraiser for the Cardenas Family

This fundraiser is on behalf of Henry Cardenas and Marina Ross who tragically lost their 2 year old son Raphael in Lincoln Square on June 2, 2022.

Rafi’s father Henry is a CPS teacher at the school where I work. Our school community mourns with them. I’ve seen the outpouring of love in the Lincoln Square community as well and neighbors are wondering how to help.

With their permission I created this page as a way to do so.

Please lift this family up in prayer as they deal with this unimaginable loss.

All donations will be deposited directly to the family.
