Our community is heartbroken by the tragic loss of Karoline Heintz, whose life was taken far too soon at just 18 years old.

Karoline was a beloved daughter, sister, family member, friend, classmate, and teammate whose life touched so many people. A graduate of Peters Township High School and a student-athlete at Penn West California, Karoline will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

In the wake of this unimaginable tragedy, many friends, neighbors, classmates, and members of the community have asked how they can honor Karoline and support something meaningful in her memory.

With the blessing of her family, this fund has been established to help ensure that Karoline’s memory continues to make a difference in the lives of others. Donations will be dedicated to establishing a scholarship in her honor and supporting organizations that work to prevent domestic abuse and assist those affected by it.

We hope that through these efforts, Karoline's legacy will provide opportunities for young people in the years ahead while also helping individuals and families affected by domestic violence.

We are deeply grateful for the extraordinary outpouring of love and support for Karoline and her family. Whether you choose to contribute, share this page, or simply keep her family and friends in your thoughts, your support is sincerely appreciated.

Also, please consider donating to the following cooperating fundraiser for meal gift cards and other ways to support the Heintz Family.
