The O’Neill Family believes it’s important to share our success with our community and we do that with a cause that is very near and dear to our hearts.
The Kevin Todd Memorial Fund
Kevin Todd, Lisa O’Neill’s brother, was only 40 years old when he passed away of complications from AIDS in 1997. In 1999, the O’Neill Family started the nonprofit Spirit of the Holidays to preserve his memory and give patients and families affected by HIV/ AIDS “one carefree day” each holiday season, donating gifts and food to more than 1,000 South Jersey families.
Determined to expand their impact, the O’Neill family, through the Spirit of the Holidays project, established the Kevin Todd Memorial Fund in March 2019 to provide year-round support for individuals with HIV/ AIDS and their loved ones—creating a source of hope and healing for South Jersey families.
Living with HIV/AIDS is difficult for patients and their families. It’s even harder when the illness is compounded by additional challenges, such as mental illness, addiction, or poverty. Managed by the Jefferson Health Foundation—New Jersey, the Kevin Todd Memorial Fund provides financial resources, which could mean the difference between surviving and thriving, and even life and death. In doing so, we strengthen Kevin’s enduring legacy through the outreach and good works of the fund. These funds help provide patients with prescription drugs, rent payments, bus rides to appointments and much more, and remind them that they are not forgotten!
