Ana Carissa De La Cruz, known to her friends as Issa or Anissa, requires urgent financial help to pay for a funeral and cremation after the sudden death of her father on the evening of May 19th, 2021.

This is an extra burden on top of the imminent risk of eviction her family faces from their home in the Philippines.

Those who have had the pleasure of meeting Anissa will know her as a passionate and talented artist who has poured her time and energy into the communities she is a part of, including us from the New Masters Academy community, giving encouragement, and spreading positivity to her fellow artists.

She is very important to all of us here. Now is the time for us to give back to Anissa and ease her financial burden during this difficult time.

Thank you for taking the time to read, contribute, and spread the word. We thank you all so much for your support. Every dollar counts.
