Donate to Michelle's Daughters' Future

Our first cousin Michelle Orengo, recently lost her battle with Colon Cancer on Monday August 19th 2024. She was a loving wife and mother to two beautiful young girls ages 5 and 9. Michelle has been a faithful Christian for the last 20 years having served as deacon, worship leader, as well as a children and marriage counselor. She was an active member in her community up until her diagnosis in 2020 serving in food pantries as well as counseling young single mothers. Michelle is survived by her husband Evelio, daughters Julia and Ashely, mother Deborah, stepfather Danny, brother Justin, niece Samantha, and many aunts, uncles, and cousins who deeply loved her.

The loss of Michelle is an unbearable weight on our family, especially her husband as he will not be able to adequately support the family without her. We are not asking for survival money (rent or food) but rather asking for your help to solidify a future for these children. Michelle’s wish was for the girls to have the opportunity to go to college to create beautiful lives for themselves and we would love to see that wish come true. Please help us pave a bright path forward for the girls amidst one of the darkest times in their lives.

Please note, all monies will be managed by the girls grandmother (our Aunt) and will be placed in a trust for the girls at a future age tbd.

Thank you in advance for any support you can lend.

Sincerely,

Nick Buonagurio & Jessica Dunsheath
