Help Riley Fulfill Tina's College Wish

Donation protected
My name is Steve and I'm raising money in my wife's honor for my stepson Riley's education. Tina Farrell was a teacher in the Bellmawr school district for almost 20 years. Tina was diagnosed with breast cancer in her early 30s and was cancer-free for over 7 years until it returned as stage 4 metastatic breast cancer in her lungs in April of 2021. Despite her condition, Tina continued teaching in-between doctor's appointments and chemotherapy treatments. She could have retired at the time of her diagnosis; however, her love for teaching and her students would not allow her to stop. She continued changing lives until the end of the 2023-2024 school year. Tina passed away peacefully in her sleep on November 7th. She was surrounded by friends and family during her last days with us.

Education was extremely important to Tina and that was instilled in Riley. Riley is currently a junior at Bishop Eustace Preparatory School in Pennsauken, NJ. Tina's number 1 wish for Riley is for him to continue his education through college.

This fundraiser has been created to help ease the burden of college expenses as we prepare to send Riley to a school of his choosing in the fall of 2026.
