About The Shelby Clark Memorial Fund
Our Mission
At The Shelby Clark Memorial Fund, we strive to improve the lives of children with special needs by providing services, tools, and hope to their families.
Our History
When our sweet daughter passed away suddenly in 2011 after a routine medical procedure, our world collapsed. Shelby, age 4, had some special needs and we were just settling into our role as her parents and advocates. We loved it. Our biggest fear when she died was that no one would remember her - her giggle, her joy, her determination. With the help of seed money from caring friends and family, we established the fund in her memory. Even though we were robbed of the privilege of parenting a child with special needs, we still want to give back to this precious community.
Making a difference - a gallery of appreciation.
Thank you so much Kristen Bartlow and 100+ Women Who Care for awarding your fourth quarter grant to the Shelby Clark Fund. We are so grateful for your support that will help us further our mission of helping children with special needs.
