Support Andrew Cristillo’s Family After Tragic Loss

On August 3rd, our lives changed forever. My beloved husband, Andrew Cristillo, was tragically killed in a horrific head-on collision caused by another driver. In that moment, our three little girls, Leah, Chloe, and Ella, and I were also injured and rushed to the hospital. My daughters are now being treated at SickKids for life-altering injuries, and our hearts will always carry a void that can never be filled.

Andrew was my best friend and the love of my life — the kind of partner who stood beside me through everything, making me feel loved, supported, and never alone. He was an amazing, hands-on dad to our girls, always playing with them, teaching them, and making them laugh until their cheeks hurt. Andrew had a wicked sense of humour and a way of lighting up every room he walked into — the life of the party, the friend everyone wanted by their side, the one who could make you smile even on your worst day. His greatest wish was for his family to be safe, happy, and cared for, and he worked tirelessly to give our daughters the best life and future he possibly could.

Now, that future is uncertain.

I’ve been fighting Breast Cancer for the past few years, doing everything I can to be here for my daughters. Now I’m facing the unimaginable: raising them without their dad, while still fighting for my own health.

I’m asking for your help so my girls can have the stability, care, and opportunities that Andrew always wanted for them. Donations will go directly toward:

• The girls’ recovery and rehabilitation (beyond OHIP coverage) from their injuries, and

• Long-term needs like schooling, activities, and milestones Andrew should have been here for

This tragedy was not just an accident — it’s the result of someone else’s reckless actions. The other driver fled the scene and is under criminal investigation. While justice is being pursued, our focus now is survival physically, emotionally, and financially.

If you can, please consider donating. Every donation, no matter the size, will help my daughters and me rebuild our lives. If you can’t give, sharing our story means the world to us.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your compassion, generosity, and prayers.

— Christina, Leah, Chloe, and Ella Cristillo
