Dear friends, family, and generous supporters,

We are reaching out on behalf of our dear teammate and friend, Toni Dela Cruz, during an incredibly difficult time.

Recently, while Toni was staying at her mother’s home, a devastating fire destroyed the house and everything inside. In a matter of moments, her mother lost her entire home and all of her belongings. While the loss of belongings is devastating, we are incredibly grateful and relieved to share that everyone in the home is safe, including Toni’s two young children.

Toni is an important part of our team, and it’s heartbreaking to hear that she is facing such an unexpected loss. Toni lost many of her personal items, including her phone and laptop, tools that are absolutely vital to her work and livelihood. They are essential for her to work, to communicate, and to provide for her family. Without them, returning to work and regaining stability will be extremely challenging. In addition, her mother lost her sewing machine, which she relied on for her own work and income.

We are humbly asking for donations to help Toni replace the essential tools she needs to get back on her feet and return to work. Any amount, no matter how small, will make a meaningful difference. If you are unable to give, please consider sharing this page to help spread the word.

We will include Toni’s Facebook post below, where she shares more about the events and the aftermath in her own words.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this difficult time towards our dear friend and teammate, Toni.
