Our Founder
A grandmother's love, carried forward
This foundation grew out of a grandmother's devotion to her granddaughter and to every child learning to live with juvenile arthritis. Her strength, faith, and quiet generosity are the roots this organization was built on, and her memory is the reason we keep showing up for families.
