On July 4th, 2025, a devastating car accident changed everything for Jenn Burke and her family.
The crash resulted in her son Ashton having to be cut from the car by two good Samaritans before firefighters and medics could reach them.
Her husband, Gerry Burke, tragically did not make it, and Ashton was critically injured and is now on a long road to recovery.
As a stay-at-home mom, Jenn has poured her life into caring for their four children: Logan (15), Kylie (12), Declan (11), and Ashton (8). Now she is facing the unimaginable—mourning the love of her life, supporting her children through healing both physical and mental, and trying to find a way forward without a financial safety net.
This fund is being set up to help ease the overwhelming burden she now faces.
I am organizing this fundraiser on behalf of Jenn Burke, a close friend who has been like family to me for years. She will be receiving 100% of the donations straight into her bank account.
Donations will go toward:
- Funeral and memorial expenses for Gerry
- Medical bills and rehabilitation costs for Ashton
- Basic living expenses as Jenn transitions into this new heartbreaking chapter
- Support for trauma counseling and mental health services for both mom and the kids
Jenn and Gerry have always been some of the kindest people I've known. Gerry was a 'give you the shirt off his back if you needed it' kind of guy and Jenn has the biggest heart. If you can donate, any contribution, no matter the size, will help bring some light to this family's darkest days. If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing.
Thank you for all the support, kind words, and compassion for them.
