Help Honor Kristin Steven's Memory & Support Domestic Violence Survivors
On 12/06/24, Kristin Steven's, who was nothing but a bright light to everyone she encountered, tragically lost her life in a violent act of domestic violence. After courageously trying to escape an abusive relationship, she was murdered by her abuser—someone who was able to bypass a court injunction and was not ankle monitored, despite previous threats. Tragically, her 16 year old son, now has to navigate life without his mother. The abuser (His father) died in a car accident while fleeing the scene.
Kristin was a loving mother, daughter, sister and friend who deserved a future filled with peace, joy, and love. She truly believed she was here to shed light and love on everyone and she did so effortlessly. She was present in every moment and her death has left a gaping hole in the lives of everyone who knew her. But beyond the pain, we must turn this tragedy into something meaningful.
Our Goal
We are raising funds to do two things:
Support her son: We want to ensure that he has the financial support he needs to continue his education and thrive despite this unimaginable loss. Funds will go toward his future, helping him pursue his dreams while he navigates life without his mother’s love and guidance.
Advocate for a New Domestic Violence Law: We aim to raise awareness and push for legislative changes that would require stricter monitoring of domestic violence offenders, ensuring that no one else has to go through the horror my best friend did. No one should be able to break an injunction and hurt someone again. We will be working with legal experts, advocacy groups, and legislators to make this law a reality.
Why This Matters
No one should ever have to fear for their life in an abusive relationship. And no child should have to lose their mother in such a senseless and violent way. We hope to make a change to help prevent future tragedies, and give her son a chance to heal and succeed.
Please consider donating and sharing this page. Every contribution counts, and together, we can make a difference in the fight against domestic violence.
Thank you for your love and support during this devastating time.
