Jade Aaliyah Turner Memorial Scholarship

Hello everyone. This fundraiser is to support a memorial scholarship in honor of my goddaughter, Jade Aaliyah Turner, who tragically passed in January of 2023, just a few weeks after her 16th birthday. 

Jade was bright in every way. She loved nature, cooking, and spending time with her friends and family. She was funny, creative, and insightful in ways that surpassed her years. Jade was a best friend to many and an adoring sister. She will be remembered as a kind soul whose compassion for others could be felt.

Before her untimely passing, Jade was in her sophomore year at Geneva High School where she was fortunate to have many close relationships. She was incredibly caring and aspired to be a nurse. Though Jade did not have the opportunity to pursue her passions, we hope this memorial scholarship will honor her life by helping afford that chance to others. 

This scholarship will be awarded annually to a graduating senior of Geneva High School interested in entering the nursing or medical field. Thanks to your generosity, we have already awarded $2,000 in scholarships to two GHS graduates. We hope to continue supporting Geneva's youth for years to come.

Jade should be preparing for graduation this year- applying to scholarships herself, celebrating with her classmates, and looking ahead to her future. While we will never stop mourning our sweet girl and the milestones she was denied, we will continue to honor her life and the love she brought into the world.

We thank you for any contribution you’re able to make and would also appreciate if you share this with others. We are so grateful for your continued kindness, your support, and for remembering Jade with us.
