Kristen Stephanie Watt was a beautiful and enthusiastic young woman who tragically fell victim to an eating disorder when she was only fourteen years old.
All who knew Kristen remember her beautiful smile, her zest for life, and her love for people. She was an outstanding athlete who swam, played competitive soccer, and loved to roller blade. At school, Kristen was a conscientious student, active in the California Junior Scholarship Federation, and an eager participant in many activities that helped make Sierra Middle School an outstanding social and educational environment.
But behind all of this was a young woman secretly struggling to fight a horrible illness.
Goal
The goal of the Kristen Watt Foundation is to provide ways to help youth develop positive self-images, recognize the signs and symptoms of eating disorders, and know what to do if they find themselves or someone they care about faced with this problem.
