Community Fund Honors Jake Katzenberger with a Park Memorial

Some legacies are too big to be contained. Jake Katzenberger was a joyful, energetic 7-year-old from St. Charles remembered for his contagious smile and love of sports. After passing away in August 2023, Jake left behind a legacy even greater than his years — saving the lives of two children through organ donation. Now, the Village of St. Charles and the Saginaw Community Foundation are working together to honor Jake with a tunnel and treehouse memorial at Coal Miners Park, a place designed to spark the same imagination and energy Jake brought to everyone around him.

White Orthodontics is proud to stand alongside the St. Charles community in honoring Jake’s memory and turn tragedy into something that will bring joy to children across Mid-Michigan for generations to come. To support the project, visit the Saginaw Community Foundation.
