Kristi’s Pashen Unity Fund

Kristi’s Pashen Unity Fund was created to honor the legacies of two remarkable women—your mother and mother-in-law—who both passed away due to chronic illnesses (cancer and asthma-related complications). Their lives were marked by love, resilience, and dedication to their families and communities, and their passing left a void that inspired action.

The fundraiser is built around the principle of unity and support—turning personal loss into community healing. Its mission is to provide tangible assistance to individuals and families facing chronic illnesses, helping them navigate medical, emotional, and practical challenges. Through Kristi’s Pashen Unity Fund, families can access resources, relief, and support networks that often don’t exist during such difficult times.

The name itself carries deep meaning: “Pashen” symbolizes enduring love and remembrance, while “Unity” reflects the commitment to bring people together—patients, families, donors, and volunteers—to create a community where no one feels alone while facing health struggles.

This fundraiser is not just about financial support—it’s about building a legacy of care, awareness, and compassion, making sure that the hardships faced by those with chronic illnesses are met with understanding, resources, and hope.
