Joan Perkowski Cashin
Foundation
An everyday girl…
"...everyday in the same way that the sun is an everyday event.
She warmed those around her with her smile and her caring.
Her example helped others see better what they could and should do.
Her steadfastness inspired hope in all who knew her." — A neighbor, upon Joan's passing
Dedicated to assisting those organizations that show the helpful, caring, encouraging traits that were Joan.
