Honor Claudette Soto by Supporting Her Family

Donation protected
Supporting Claudette Soto’s Family in Their Time of Need

With heavy hearts, we share that our beloved Claudette Soto has passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. Diagnosed with aggressive triple-negative breast cancer in 2023, she endured 16 rounds of harsh chemotherapy and a double mastectomy, triumphantly beating the disease by 2024. When cancer returned, she fought with the same incredible strength and determination but ultimately lost her second battle.

Claudette was a devoted wife, loving mother to three boys, and successful CEO who made an incredible impact on so many lives. Throughout her career and personal journey, she consistently championed kids, minorities, and women, helping forge paths for others to follow. Even during her cancer battle, she used her voice to encourage women to prioritize their health. You can see her inspiring message here: NBC Chicago Story.

Now her husband and three sons face this unimaginable loss. We want to remove financial burdens so the Barraza Soto family can focus on grief and healing.

Your donation will help with whatever support they need (i.e., funeral expenses, college funds, unexpected expenses, etc.) as they navigate this difficult time.

Claudette spent her life lifting others up. Let’s honor her legacy by supporting the family she loved so deeply. Every donation helps them focus on what matters most - healing together.
