Transforming Grief into Healing:
The JunneBug Foundation Startup Campaign
The JunneBug Foundation is in its early stages, and we need your support to bring our vision to life. Your donation today will help cover essential startup costs, laying the groundwork for meaningful, lasting impact. With your support, we can create safe, supportive spaces for healing, empowerment, and resilience in the face of grief.
Our Goal:
We aim to raise $50,000 to fully launch The JunneBug Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to providing compassionate, creative, and culturally responsive grief support for individuals and families.
Your generous contributions will help us build a strong foundation by covering critical startup costs, including nonprofit registration, curriculum development, and grief facilitator training, so we can begin serving our community with care and integrity.
These funds will also allow us to provide essential grief support resources and host monthly “Creating Through Grief” sessions, which use art and storytelling as healing tools for those navigating loss.
Every dollar you give helps us move one step closer to making healing accessible, meaningful, and rooted in community.
About The JunneBug Foundation:
The JunneBug Foundation was created in memory of the founder’s three-year-old son, Junne, to transform grief into healing, community, and advocacy. Junne was a bright light to his family, always bringing a smile to his loved ones’ faces. Though small in size, he had a big spirit that lifted everyone around him with his joy, silliness, and love. Whether making others laugh or trying to lift his mom off the ground, Junne’s presence was full of life and heart.
With every life we touch, we continue Junne’s joyful, uplifting spirit. Our mission is simple but powerful: no one should have to grieve in silence. Through our Creating Through Grief sessions, we provide compassionate spaces where art, storytelling, and spirituality come together as tools for restoration. In our first year, we’ve already hosted two sold-out Creating Through Grief experiences, where participants found connection, release, and hope. As we continue to grow, The JunneBug Foundation is committed to bringing grief education, therapy access, and community healing programs to underserved communities, because grief should never be a privilege.
Why Your Support Matters:
Starting a nonprofit and building meaningful programs from the ground up requires resources, dedication, and community. Your contribution, whether large or small, will help:

Support healing through creativity by funding monthly Creating Through Grief sessions that use art, storytelling, and connection as tools for navigating loss.

Turn the privilege I received in my own grief journey into a fundamental human right for others.
