Help Shanelle's Kids After Her Passing

Donation protected
What should have been one of life’s greatest joys—welcoming a new baby—turned into an unimaginable journey for Shanelle Hopkins. Just after giving birth, she was diagnosed with a brain tumor the size of a golf ball. Over nine years, she bravely endured three brain surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation, countless seizures, and endless hospital visits.

On June 22 around 11 a.m., after a long and courageous battle, Shanelle peacefully went home to be with the Lord.

In her final year, her husband lovingly stepped away from work to care for her full-time. While this act of devotion gave Shanelle the support she needed, it left the family facing both emotional and financial hardship.

Now, with two young children—one about to start preschool — they are doing their best to get back on their feet as her husband actively looks for new work.

We humbly ask for your help to cover the costs of Shanelle’s celebration of life, outstanding medical bills, and support for her children’s future.

Every prayer, share, and donation means more than words can express. Thank you for your love, compassion, and support.
