Rally for Delaney: Finish College Strong

Donation protected
On August 4th, 2024, Delaney's life was turned upside-down. Her mom, Kelly, passed suddenly and unexpectedly.

They were so much more than just mother and daughter. They were best friends, confidants, partners in crime (and hilarity), and always together. Kelly shared her love and laughter with anyone lucky enough to know her and all of us knew that Delaney was her whole world.

Kelly was so proud of her and made constant sacrifices to let Delaney live out her dreams. One of those dreams is to finish her senior year of college at Illinois State University. And that's where we all come in.

Kelly left behind a legacy of people who loved her. I want to honor that by taking care of her baby girl. Every donation here goes directly to Delaney to help support her through her senior year. To cover expenses for school, lodging, her vehicle, food, whatever pops up so she can focus on graduating.

Delaney has a tough year ahead, but with our help, we can take away some of the stress and show her all the love Kelly taught us.
