About Us

The Megan Cajigas Education Foundation is a family founded non-profit established in 2007 in memory of Megan our granddaughter, daughter, sister, cousin and niece. Megan’s life on earth was short, but she is now our angel in heaven inspiring us each and every day to help other children.  A father’s promise is kept alive with each and every donation received and scholarship awarded.  Megan’s identical twin sister, Emily, is now in Pre-K and reminds us daily that children of her age are learning new skills, developing habits and asking questions with every new experience that comes before them.  Every child deserves to have those skills, habits and questions nurtured in a supportive and educational environment.  Our belief is a quality Pre-K experience provides the environment.  We hope that you will help us by donating Dollars for Small Scholars today.

Sincerely the Kaczynski and Cajigas Families
