Richard Panaligan - Help his grieving family

Like most Filipino teachers, Mr. Richard Panaligan once dreamt of becoming a teacher in the US. His journey began in 2018 when he applied for a US teaching job. Unfortunately, faith seemed to have not favored him as it took him more than three years to get the job that he desired.

Last August 2022, he finally arrived in the US, hoping for a better life. He is such a friendly and happy person who is highly motivated in life. He worked hard every day to support his family and aimed to bring them to the US too, one day. This has been his goal at present.

But there was a sudden turn of events. Last December 7, 2022, he wasn’t feeling very good and started complaining to his housemates about it. He took a day off from work to rest, but he could not bear it anymore. He asked his housemates to bring him to the hospital because he couldn’t breathe. They called 911, and he landed directly to the ICU. After a day in the ICU, most of his organs failed, and there was nothing the doctors could do. Mr. Richard died due to cardiac arrest on Sunday morning, December 11th.

On behalf of Bepauche International LLC, we would like to ask for your help. Mr. Richard has left his wife and three wonderful children in the Philippines. The proceeds of this fundraiser will go to his family and his children's future.

Richard's family wishes to bring his remains to the Philippines, and this is now in process to make sure this wish is granted. Please include them in your prayers. Thank you for your generosity!

Mr Reynaldo Belen a relative of the Panaligan family in the US. As much as we want to put the money directly to his wife's account, GoFundMe will not allow that because this campaign is setup in the US and requires a US bank account. Mr Belen has been authorized by his wife to collect the funds. He reports directly to Catherine. If there is any confusion, please contact me through email so we could discuss things further.
