It is with deep sadness that we announce the heartbreaking news of the passing of our valued colleague and friend, Christi Kirk. For over 20 years, Christi dedicated herself to the mission of Project GRAD, where her passion for helping students succeed from kindergarten through post-secondary education inspired hope and achievement in countless lives.
Christi was not only a tireless advocate for children, but she also brought warmth, kindness, and encouragement to all of us who had the privilege of working alongside her. Her legacy will live on in the lives of the students she championed and the colleagues she motivated to strive for excellence.
Our deepest sympathies are with Christi’s family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time. As we mourn this tremendous loss, we are committed to supporting each other as a community and ensuring Christi’s legacy lives on in the work we do.
In this time of grief, we come together to remember the incredible legacy she leaves behind. Please join us in honoring Christi’s memory and keeping her family in your thoughts during this difficult time.
