Help Zac and Kids Rebuild After Tragedy
Donation protected
Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,
The parents of Zac and Kari are reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your support for our son, Zac, and his three beautiful children.
On March 6, 2025 Zac’s wife, Kari, passed away unexpectedly at just 32 years old, leaving behind a family who is devastated and struggling to navigate their unimaginable loss.
Kari was a loving wife, a devoted mother, and a light to everyone who knew her. She poured her heart into her children - Hayley (12), Nora (7) and Herbie (5) who are now facing life without their mom far too soon.
Zac is doing everything he can to be strong for his kids while managing the overwhelming emotional and financial challenges that come with this tragic loss.
With three young children to care for, the financial burden is immense. From funeral costs to daily living expenses, childcare, and future needs, Zac is facing more than any father should have to bear alone.
That’s why we are setting up this GoFundMe—to rally around him and his kids, ensuring they have the support they need in this incredibly difficult time.
Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward helping Zac provide stability for his children—keeping a roof over their heads, covering essential expenses, and ensuring they have the love and care they need to heal.
If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser with others who may be able to help. Your kindness, prayers, and support mean the world to us.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of this journey with us. Your generosity and compassion will make a lasting difference in the lives of Zac and his children as they navigate this heartbreaking chapter.
