Goal

Evelyn Dieckhaus was our smart, fun, and creative 9 year old who passed from this world on March 27, 2023.  Evelyn loved her family more than anything but she also loved her school, arts & crafts, animals, and helping those with special needs.


The Evelyn Dieckhaus Shining Light Fund is a charitable fund set up by our family to shine a light on the causes that were closest to Evelyn's heart.  Please consider joining us in supporting many wonderful causes on her behalf.


Love,


Mike, Katy, and Eleanor Dieckhaus
