The Angelcheeks Foundation is a Donor Advised Fund
established through the Battle Creek Community Foundation to assist
families who suffer the tragic loss of a young child.
The video above features founders Brian and
Andrea Nessel and their YouTube friends.
The
Foundation was created by Brian and Andrea Nessel after they lost
their youngest son, Evan, in 2007 to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Because
the Nessels had life insurance for Evan, they were able to memorialize
him in a way that was fitting to his beautiful spirit. Other families
are not so lucky. The Foundation provides grants to parents and guardians
who do not have life insurance and who are struggling to cover the
costs of memorializing their child.
The Angelcheeks Foundation
also exists to educate parents about the importance and affordability
of obtaining life insurance policies for all of their children. No
parent wants to believe that they will ever lose their child; but
the unthinkable can happen. We want to help parents preserve
the memory of their children with dignity and with grace.
