Kerry Ann’s Preschool Legacy Fund

For over a decade, Kerry Ann has been the heart and soul of K.A.S.I.A. Preschool, a haven for families in east Toronto. As a devoted single mother of three, she not only nurtured her own children but extended her care to countless others, creating a home away from home.

Amid financial challenges worsened by the pandemic, Kerry Ann used her own resources to keep the preschool running, showcasing unwavering commitment. She pioneered affordable care during times when it became unattainable for many, ensuring her preschool remained a sanctuary. Providing unique and inclusive programming, she acted as a second mother to countless children during uncertain times, extending her care beyond the preschool years. Kerry Ann's charitable spirit, coupled with personal sacrifices, has left a lasting impact on the community.

Despite navigating difficult life changes during the pandemic, Kerry Ann kept the doors open and staff paid from her own funds. Now, the community is rallying to support her in return for the incredible and affordable care provided to so many local children.

K.A.S.I.A. has been a lifeline for many families, offering crucial support during the pandemic. Kerry Ann's passion for caregiving, coupled with her innovative approach, made K.A.S.I.A. more than a preschool; it was a community cornerstone. The closure of K.A.S.I.A. is a profound loss for the community, and this GoFundMe seeks to honor Kerry Ann's legacy by supporting her during this challenging time.
