Celebrating a Season of Impact and Giving
As 2024 comes to a close, we can’t help but reflect on the incredible moments, partnerships, and successes that have defined this last month for The For Nina Foundation. From uplifting community events to impactful fundraising milestones, each experience has brought us closer to our mission of supporting children and young adults facing serious illnesses.
We’re proud to share highlights from our recent events—Giving Tuesday, the Sports 4 The Kids Charity Golf Tournament, and our latest Kendra Scott Give Back events—all of which showcase the power of community, connection, and compassion. All of these events, and many others we've hosted since we started our wig program in May, have allowed us to give 22 kids custom wigs in 2024. Thank you for helping us make this first year such a success!
Giving Tuesday Success
Giving Tuesday was a remarkable success for The For Nina Foundation, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we raised over $4,000 in a single day! These funds will provide four young patients with beautiful, high-quality wigs, along with hair care and accessories baskets to help them feel comfortable and confident.
The impact of these gifts is life-changing. Families often share with us that when their child receives a wig, they begin to feel like themselves again—a small but powerful step toward restoring normalcy during an incredibly difficult time.
This Giving Tuesday, we were reminded of the collective power of generosity and community. Every donation brings us closer to our mission of improving the quality of life for children and young adults facing serious illnesses. Thank you for being part of this success and helping us make a tangible difference!
Sports 4 The Kids Charity Golf Tournament
Just days after the LOUD Fashion Show, we had the honor of sponsoring the 11th Annual Sports 4 The Kids Charity Golf Tournament, supporting underserved children in Central Florida with access to sports programs. This event holds a special place in our hearts, as Nina Karlinsky herself volunteered at many Sports 4 The Kids events, sharing her love for kids, sports, and community.

Sharing Nina’s story!
The For Nina Foundation proudly sponsored the 16th hole, where Erica Karlinsky, CEO, shared Nina’s story with all 27 teams. The day was filled with connection and inspiration, culminating in the presentation of the Nina Karlinsky Soccer Scholarships to two young boys, empowering them to pursue their passion for soccer—Nina’s favorite sport and lifelong love.
Nina’s legacy of determination and excellence lives on through these scholarships, reminding us of her lasting impact on and off the field.
