Meet Our Team

A shared purpose. A deeply personal mission.

Weeping Willa is powered by people who believe no family should have to navigate the loss of a child alone. Our team brings together different experiences, strengths, and connections to our community, but we share one purpose: showing up for families when life changes forever.

From supporting families and building community partnerships to fundraising, events, outreach, and the work that happens quietly behind the scenes, each person plays a part in carrying Willa’s legacy forward.

Together, we’re transforming grief into growth, one family at a time.
