Support Vivi and her family

On August 27, 2025, tragedy struck at Annunciation Catholic School when a school shooting left several students injured and heartbreakingly took the lives of two children. Among the injured was 9-year-old Vivian St. Clair, who was shot multiple times in her back and arm.

Despite her injuries, Vivi ran from the church to the school gym, where a police officer scooped her up and rushed her to an ambulance. She was taken to HCMC, where her mom, Malia, works.

Doctors have shared that Vivi has several bullet fragments in her small body that they do not intend to remove, meaning she may carry them with her for life. She is receiving IV antibiotics and fluids, and through it all, she continues to smile and radiate sweetness. She’s been telling people how excited she is to swim at her Grandma’s pool in Arizona this evening with her dad, Joe—just showing how innocent and hopeful she remains.

Malia, Joe, and older brother Jack have been by her side every step of the way, and will continue to support her through this long and emotional recovery. Already, Vivi has begun to ask questions about why this happened to her, questions no 9-year-old should ever have to ask.

We are raising funds to support Vivi and her family as they face the difficult road ahead. Donations will go toward:
