"I was devastated. He was a good kid. He did all the things a parent would want a child to do."
-- Marilyn Washington Harris
On August 4, 2000, Marilyn's 18-year old son, Khadafy Washington, was shot and
killed while riding his bicycle in West Oakland. She has since
turned her grief into a determination to halt the cycle of violence and
to comfort others who share her experience.
Based
in Oakland, California, the Khadafy Foundation provides support
services to anyone who has lost a child or other loved one to
violence. At this time of greatest crisis, we reach out with immediate
support.
If your friend or family member was recently killed, please call us at (510) 839-1706 so we can assist you through this difficult time.
