In Memory of Zeljka Fadich

A personal campaign sponsored by Luka Fadich

Support Me

We are remembering the life of Zeljka Fadich. She was very special to us because she was a loving wife, mom, aunt, sister, and cousin.  She would go out of her way in order to help others especially those who needed it the most.  She would have liked for donations to be made in her name to fight in lieu of flowers.  

We are passionate about the V Foundation because Zeljka's husband Mico Fadich passed away from cancer and Zeljka donated to assist in finding the cure for cancer.

As family and friends of Zeljka Fadich, we celebrate and remember her life. 

Cancer research is important to me and well as our family because we know, someday, cancer will be a disease of the past. We have chosen to designate donations to the V Foundation for Cancer Research because Zeljka embodied the same spirit as Jim Valvano to "Don't Give Up ... Don't Ever Give Up!"

We will never give up in the fight against cancer. Thank you for standing beside me, for remembering Zeljka and for considering a gift to the V Foundation in Zeljka's memory.
