<div>Hi everyone, my name is Alejandra Garcia and I am a currently employee of Perris Union High School District and Melissa’s colleague. This gofundme was created with their consent and knowledge. Please read their story below: 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As many of you know, Melissa Valdez has been courageously battling a long-term illness that has severely impacted her immune system. This illness has forced her to step away from her role as an educator within PUHSD, leaving her and her family in a challenging financial situation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re reaching out to ask for your support during this difficult time. Any contribution, big or small, will make a meaningful difference and help ease the burden on Melissa and her loved ones. Your generosity and kindness are deeply appreciated, and we continue to pray for Melissa's health and strength.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, and may blessings of health and hope be with you all.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For full transparency, Oscar Valdez, Melissa’s husband decided I would manage this fundraiser on their behalf. The money will be handed to them directly. Thank you for your contributions!
