With heavy hearts, we share the sudden and heartbreaking loss of Paulin Lusala, a devoted husband, a loving father of five, and a pillar of strength to everyone who knew him.

Known affectionately as Papa Paulin, he was the foundation of his family, the steady presence they leaned on, the protector who made sure his children were safe, supported, and loved. In a single moment, that foundation was taken away, leaving his wife and children facing a future filled with grief, uncertainty, and overwhelming questions.

As they mourn an unimaginable loss, the last thing this family should be burdened with is fear of losing their home or struggling to meet their most basic needs.

Our Goal: $35,000

We are coming together as a community to provide immediate support for:

Funeral and memorial expenses, so Papa Paulin can be honored with the dignity he deserves

An emergency stability fund, helping his wife and children remain secure as they begin this painful transition

Papa Paulin spent his life showing up for others, with kindness, generosity, and quiet strength. Now it is our turn to show up for him and for the family he loved so deeply.

Every contribution, no matter the amount, carries real impact. If you’re unable to give, sharing this message can be just as powerful.
