A strong legacy is not something most 25-year-olds have yet. But for Kennedy Parker, she made an impact on people she knew and even some she didn't.
In 2016, shortly after she turned 21, Kennedy was diagnosed with Sarcoma cancer. The next year would include countless days and nights in the hospital. But the thing that kept her going, was the support of her mom, Darnesha Evans, and her support network of friends and family. Because of all the love and support Kennedy was getting, it made it apparent to her when other kids and teens didn't receive anything, or even sometimes didn't even have a parent by their bedside. She had an idea for a nonprofit whose mission is to provide comfort to people battling cancer. And thus, Project Kennedy was born.
For almost two years, life was getting back to normal for Kennedy. But in the summer of 2020, her cancer returned, and the doctors said she wouldn't be returning home this time. Darnesha cherished the last few weeks she had with Kennedy, and said Kennedy had a major wish... that her organization, Project Kennedy, flourish and help hundreds of cancer patients.
