A Fundraiser for Mark, Maya and Noa

Last week, we unexpectedly lost a most beautiful and loving soul - our dear friend Bridget Belton. Anyone lucky enough to have been on the receiving end of one of Bridget’s famous hugs knows how generously she gave of herself.

Bridget was a tireless contributor to her community, volunteering countless hours at her daughters’ school doing whatever was required, and then some. She was a devoted caregiver to family and friends, always there when needed, without question or hesitation. And while we all struggle to come to terms with this unimaginable loss, our thoughts constantly turn to Mark, Maya and Noa, and helping them through the weeks, months and years to come.

It’s not hard to imagine how Bridget herself would have mobilized in the face of such a tragedy. It’s with this in mind that we’re launching this GoFundMe effort, in the hope that Bridget’s family continues to be looked after the way she would have wanted. Funds raised will be offered to help cover their immediate expenses (funeral, food, etc.), with the remainder directed toward Maya and Noa’s education. 

Please help us get the word out and share this link with anyone you think might be interested in contributing. Any and all contributions are welcome; no amount is too small!

With gratitude,

Belton–Balaban Fan Club, Riverdale Branch
