Dee-Jade Pi'ilani Chock died on March 28, 2008 after a difficult 12-year battle with kidney cancer. She was 29. Through her ordeal, one of her wishes was to establish a scholarship fund to help to young college students living with cancer and other diseases to pay for and complete their higher education while enduring the fight. She sounds like she was an amazing woman.
In honor of her memory, carrying out her aspirations, her friends and family have created the Dee-Jade Pi'ilani Chock Foundation. Any donations made to the family will be placed into a fund to be used as see money to carry out Dee's wishes.
Donations can be made in the name of the "Dee-Jade Pi'ilani Chock Memorial Fund" at any Wells Fargo Bank. Please ask a teller to notify a supervisor to facilitate the transaction under "donation fund" accounts. For more information, visit the Foundation website here.
