ArtWorks is so very sad to here of Michele’s passing. She was a true inspiration and did so much for children facing illness. Her dedication to the child life community will be unmatched and she will be greatly missed by us all.
Dear enCourage Kids Community,
It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we inform you that Michele Hall-Duncan, our President & CEO, has passed away after a four-year battle with breast cancer. She passed peacefully in her sleep, in the company of loved ones and received world-class care from the day of diagnosis until the end of life.
Michele was the heart and soul of enCourage Kids for 26 years. Words cannot express the full scope of her impact on the organization, the children and families we serve, our hospital partners, and all of the lives she touched.
We will have more information to share in the coming days, and ask that you direct any inquiries to [email protected]. We will respond as we are able to.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Sincerely,
The Board of Directors and Staff of enCourage Kids Foundation
