Blanca Coreas, a cherished member of the Praline Bakery, and her teen-age son Jaime Zelaya were victims of a shooting in Washington, D.C., on February 22 by an unknown assailant. Tragically, Jaime died of his injuries, and Blanca is currently hospitalized in critical condition, with gunshot wounds to her feet, with the uncertainty of her ability to walk again. As customers of Praline know, Blanca has been a hardworking and dedicated employee since the bakery opened in 2006. She is always eager to help and greets customers with a smile. This tragedy creates an uncertain future for Blanca and her family. Praline has created a GoFundMe page to raise money to help with any costs related to Blanca's recovery and burial of her son. We hope you'll consider contributing. Please also feel free to forward this link to friends and neighbors who may know Blanca from Praline. Thank you for your generosity and kindness at this very difficult time
