The Tina Jasper Children’s Fund was created in honor of Tina Jasper—a mother, grandmother, and lifelong source of kindness, compassion, and care. Tina was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease in 2016, an illness that has gradually taken so much from her and from those who love her. But Alzheimer’s is only a small part of Tina’s story. Throughout her life, few things brought her more purpose than caring for children. She had a remarkable capacity to put others before herself and to make people feel understood, supported, and loved—especially kids.

As Tina now lives in the late stages of her illness, the Fund is an opportunity to ensure that her legacy is defined not by what Alzheimer’s took from her, but by what gave her life meaning. In her name, we support organizations working to give children facing difficult and unfair circumstances a better chance at healthy, secure, and fulfilling lives. It is a legacy rooted in the values Tina lived every day, and one that can be carried forward by her children, her grandchildren, and generations still to come.

Because every child deserves the opportunity to thrive.
