The teen's family launched a GoFundMe campaign that had raised more than $24,500 as of Saturday, Feb. 4.
The campaign says Monica battled "anxiety, depression, and a severe eating disorder" for years. But she didn't let it define her.
"Monica had many interests such as being a member of girl scouts since kindergarten, rec soccer, Mexican Folk dance, volunteering at the pet shelter to help feed the cats, and cooking delicious meals/pastries for her loved ones," the page reads.
