About Us

The Porcupine Foundation was established in memory of our
11-month-old son who died unexpectedly in July 1998. Because Shane's brief presence here on Earth had such a profound impact on all who knew him, we wanted to celebrate his life and honor his memory in a permanent fashion.

Porcupine Foundation Donates $25,000 to Childrens Hospital!

Due to the successful Benefit and Golf Classic in 2007, the Porcupine Foundation met its fundraising goals and was able to donate $25,000 to the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin Foundation. The funds were applied to the previously established "Shane Locke Hasbrook Fund for Children and Families" which now boasts of assets exceeding $100,000. Children's Hospital invests the principal and every year the Porcupine Foundation Board of Directors is allowed to choose what areas in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Grief Counseling, or Childhood Cancer Care will benefit from the investment proceeds.
