We are reaching out with heavy hearts to ask for your help and support for our beloved mother, grandmother, aunt, and friend, Ofelia Madriaga. Ofelia recently traveled to Italy as the host of a pilgrimage tour for the Jubilee—a meaningful and spiritual journey she was honored to lead. While in Italy, she became seriously ill and was admitted to Ospedale dei Castelli di Ariccia due to severe complications and pneumonia. Her condition has required urgent and ongoing medical care, placing a significant financial burden on our family.

Ofelia has devoted her entire life to service—as a passionate educator, a dedicated minister, and a guiding light to countless individuals across the world. For decades, she shaped the minds and hearts of young people with selfless dedication, always going the extra mile to help her students succeed. Her wisdom, patience, and compassion have left a lasting legacy.

As a minister, Ofelia also led spiritual pilgrimages across Italy, Spain, France, Portugal and many other Countries —bringing people closer to their faith and creating life-changing experiences for those she guided. Her deep love for others, her joyful spirit, and her unwavering faith have touched the lives of so many.

We are seeking to raise $50,000 to help cover her hospital bills, medical treatment, and the travel expenses needed for family members to be with her during this difficult time.

Ofelia has always been a giver—offering love, wisdom, and support to those around her without hesitation. If she has ever taught you, prayed with you, traveled with you, or simply inspired you, we humbly ask you to consider supporting her now.

Any donation, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference. We are deeply grateful for your kindness, your generosity, and your prayers.

With love and gratitude,

The Madriaga Family
