Bright Beginnings: Support Mr. Alain's Fight Against Cancer

Donation protected
Dear Bright Beginnings Families,

Some of you may already know, but our kind and devoted Mr. Alain is facing one of life’s toughest battles: cancer. He started chemotherapy about two weeks ago, but sadly, it hasn’t been effective. He will begin a new treatment in the coming days and is also awaiting surgery.

Because his income is just above the eligibility threshold, he is considering leaving the school to qualify for a state-managed healthcare program. He’s waiting to hear back about another program before making a final decision.

A few of us have already helped in small ways—covering some medication costs and providing meals—but given the financial strain he’s under, I wanted to see if we, as a community, could do more.

If you can and would like to help, donations are the best way to ease some of his burden—whether for medical expenses, meals, or general support. No amount is too small, and even spreading the word makes a difference.

Thank you all for your kindness and support. Let’s rally around Mr. Alain the way he has always been there for our children.

Warmly,
Elise Nolte—Mama of Henri (105) and Camille (108).
