Anna was a middle child born to a military family diagnosed with scleroderma in the last months of 2017. She uses to fight the virus every week, but in July 2020, due to covid-19, their relatively healthy kid was gone within a matter of days because of this virus. The governor put in a mask mandate on July 11th. They mourned our child in isolation, and when they were allowed, most of their family couldn’t come to her funeral due to travel restrictions. They have decided that we will start this memorial foundation in her name. They know the financial cost of medical treatments and travel to specialists to care for the child. So this scholarship foundation will hopefully ease a little of that burden for a select few youths in the United States every year who apply.
