His Story

Saarth

2008 – 2026

Saarth was a high school junior with a heart far bigger than his years. Compassionate and deeply empathetic, he noticed the people others overlooked and genuinely wanted good things for everyone around him.

He dreamed of a career in medicine, not for status, but so he could care for people who couldn't afford care. He talked about kids in underserved communities who never got a fair shot at education, and about elderly neighbors whose health and support systems were slipping away. At seventeen, he already had big plans for the community he loved.

On March 31, 2026, Saarth was taken from us far too soon in a car accident. His family founded CedarFoundation so that the dreams he carried can still come true, one student, one family, one senior at a time.

“He wanted good for everyone. Now we carry that wish for him.” — Saarth's family
