Kim Whitmore
Board President
As Alana's mom, it is an honor to serve as President for the Foundation. I look forward to the impact our work will have on increasing awareness and supporting other families who experience the loss of a baby. Along with my love for Alana, I bring my experience as a nurse, educator, advocate, public health professional, and research scientist to my role.
Corey Whitmore
Board Treasurer
I am committed to ensuring the financial integrity of the Foundation as Treasurer. As Alana's Dad, I was deeply impacted by her death. I hope our work will help bring awareness and support to other fathers who experience the loss of a baby.
Rosie Krueger
Board Secretary
Rosie Krueger is a dedicated board member of the Alana Rose Foundation, committed to raising awareness and providing hope, healing, and support to families who have experienced pregnancy and infant loss. This mission is profoundly personal to me as I am a close friend of the foundation's founder, Kim Whitmore, and her family. Raising funds and awareness for this cause allows me to honor the memory of Alana Rose while helping to ensure that families facing similar heartbreak know they are not alone. Through our work with the foundation, we strive to foster compassion, connection, and meaningful change in our communities.
Shana Kettunen
Board Member
I am passionate about helping families who have experienced pregnancy or infant loss after experiencing the loss of Alana alongside the Whitmore family along with my own pregnancy complications. In my professional career working in Maternal Fetal Medicine I worked with other families who experienced loss. Through the Alana Rose Foundation I look to help provide hope, healing, and support to other families going through this experience.
Erica Andres
Board Member
As one of Alana's godmothers and one of Kim's best friends, the Alana Rose Foundation is very special to me. Watching the Whitmore family go through their tragedy was heartbreaking. It also made me want to help other families going through that.
