The story of The Erik Foundation is the story of the founder’s dream and of a family´s loss of the first born of the newest generation.

Deborah was born a triplet. She and her brothers were known as the “Malvern triplets” by the local papers growing up. Deborah has always approached life and its challenges as a “team sport” since being born into an instant team. Deborah entered young adulthood as an electronics technician and worked for companies such as General Electric and TRW.

In 2013, Deborah´s beloved nephew, Eric, ended his life after returning from his second deployment as an active duty US Army Specialist. The changes that she saw in Eric and his eventual suicide have spurred Deborah to create The Erik Foundation, a 501(c)3 charitable organization which was created with a mission to aid US military veterans. We intend to market and sell the Erik line of products oriented around the main character, Erik, his family and his friends.

One hundred percent of all profit from the sale of these products will be used to help fund our aid programs. We intend to be as self-sustaining as possible through the sale and licensing of these products.

The Erik Foundation is in its initial campaign, where we partner with philanthropic donors that support our initiative in becoming a self-sustaining foundation. We need your help! We have huge aspirations and are eager to help people in need. Read about our mission and goals and consider making a donation for our campaign. It´s an investment in us and a validation of the light we want to make happen. We want to hear from you, too! Click on Contact and let us know what you think! Thank you…we can’t do it without your help.
