When no family exists, community comes together

Donation protected
Our community united to provide assistance to an elderly woman facing significant challenges, including homelessness. Through the collaborative efforts of local leaders, medical professionals, and law enforcement, we were able to provide her with a supportive environment.

When I was asked to serve as her advocate, I anticipated a temporary role. However, as time passed, my responsibilities grew to include caregiving, social work, and emotional support. She became an important part of my family's life for almost 5 years, and we are deeply saddened by her passing.

To ensure she receives a respectful farewell, we are organizing a fundraiser to cover funeral expenses, estimated between $5,500 and $6,500. Any monetary donations are welcome and will be greatly appreciated. Your support during this difficult time would mean a great deal.

Thank you for your compassion and kindness.

By the mercy of God, may the soul of Maria Ponce rest in peace



Nuestra comunidad se unió para brindar asistencia a una anciana que enfrentaba desafíos importantes, incluyendo la falta de vivienda. Gracias a la colaboración de líderes locales, profesionales médicos y fuerzas del orden, pudimos brindarle un entorno de apoyo.

Cuando me pidieron que la defendiera, esperaba un puesto temporal. Sin embargo, con el tiempo, mis responsabilidades aumentaron e incluyeron cuidados, trabajo social y apoyo emocional. Se convirtió en una parte importante de la vida de mi familia por casi 5 años y lamentamos profundamente su fallecimiento.

Para asegurar una despedida respetuosa, estamos organizando una recaudación de fondos para cubrir los gastos funerarios, estimados entre $5,500 y $6,500. Agradecemos todas las contribuciones de donaciones monetarias. Su apoyo en estos momentos difíciles sería de gran ayuda.

Gracias por su compasión y amabilidad.

Por la misericordia de Dios, que la Señora Maria Ponce descanse en paz
