Elda Jean-Marie Memorial Fund

Donation protected
This is memorial for my sweet Haitian mother Elda Jean-Marie. May your beautiful soul Rest In Peace. The money will be used for her funeral expenses, travel expenses to help her son Casimir (who is living in the US) fly emergently to Haiti so that he may attend her funeral, and emergency funds to care for the orphanage. 

I met Elda 5 years ago when we started the Rosemila Project in Gonaives, Haiti. Alongside Pastor Maula, she has been "the glue" that helps hold together the non-profit organization that we co-founded together with Emily Linn. My heart is so heavy hearing of her loss. I don't know if I will ever meet another human being in this world who is as extraordinary as she was- mother to 3 biological children and mother to 35 orphans who she took care of in her own home. She was She was a teacher, pastor, visionary, and philanthropist. She loved Jesus, her family, and Haiti with all her heart.

We are in desperate need of your help. Working alongside her husband, Pastor Maula, Elda selflessly gave her love, time, and finances to take care of her 200+ student school, 35 orphans who she housed in her own home, and raised 3 successful and wonderful biological children: Casimir, Mac Arthur, and her oldest son who passed away less than 2 years ago. She also hosted Americans in her home for medical missions, as she loved nothing more than giving back to her country and the community of Gonaives, Haiti. The Jean Marie family is the most selfess family I have ever met. They have dedicated their lives to helping others and never ask for anything in return. It would mean the world to me if you pray for their family, consider donating, and/or SHARE this link with your friends. Every dollar counts! 

Thanks for your time!
