This Foundation honors the beautiful life of Kaeli Kramer. It is a living tribute to the good that was within her and which is in all of us. The Foundation will carry out the work which Kaeli started, and will support the causes about which she cared so deeply. The Foundation was started by Kaeli’s parents, Linda and Peter Kramer, who shared Kaeli’s love for animals, and have supported other animal welfare interests for many years.
