On May 23rd, 2003, Julia Cekala, passed away at Boston's Children's Hospital. Julia bravely fought every health obstacle put in her way. Julia battled autism, renal failure, and a seizure disorder just to name a few, and finally Julia succumbed to hemorrhagic pancreatitis after celebrating her 9th birthday in the ICU at Children's Hospital.
Her life may have been short, but it was intensely inspirational for many. So, after much emotional consideration, The Julia Cekala Charitable Foundation was born. The foundation wasn't created with the focus of how Julia passed. It was created to celebrate the memory of how she lived.
The goal of The Julia Cekala Foundation is to focus on the issues that affected Julia’s life and to support the community through recreation, education and medical assistance.
