How Can We Help? The Shawn Herring Memorial Foundation was created in honor of Shawn Herring. When he passed away he left behind an 8 year old son.

He was 31 years old when he contracted the Hantavirus while repairing his hot water heater, under his home in Fort Lupton, Colorado. This foundation was created to help families in need. If a child has lost a parent, if a parent has lost a child or any other situation where someone may need assistance. Our family is honored and compelled to help anyone needing financial, physical, emotional or spiritual support. We are also capable of providing meals through our loving hands and delivering to the families in need when necessary. We know the pain of losing someone close to an unforeseeable event. If we can lesson the pain and help you or your family we will! Please call, text or email.
