Jenneca Simkonis Memorial Foundation

Honoring Jenneca’s Legacy Through Opportunity

The Jenneca Simkonis Memorial Foundation was created to honor the life and legacy of Jenneca Simkonis, a young woman whose kindness, determination, and love for others left a lasting impact on everyone who knew her. While Jenneca’s life was cut tragically short, her legacy continues through the opportunities we create for young women in our community.

We believe every girl deserves the chance to discover her potential, build confidence, and pursue her dreams. Through scholarships, educational experiences, and life-skills programming, we help remove barriers and open doors for the next generation.

This year alone, support from donors like you helped send one local girl to a Saquon Barkley youth football camp and provided five girls with the opportunity to attend STEM camp at Penn State. These experiences do more than teach new skills. They build confidence, create lasting memories, and show young women what is possible when someone believes in them.

Every dollar raised through NEPA Gives helps us continue that mission. Your gift allows us to invest directly in girls and young women throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania by providing opportunities they may not otherwise have access to.

Jenneca believed in living life fully, supporting others, and making people feel valued. Through your generosity, her spirit lives on in every young woman encouraged to dream bigger, try something new, and believe in herself.

Join us in honoring Jenneca’s legacy. Together, we can create opportunities that change lives.

Give today and help us turn remembrance into opportunity.
