Funeral Related Costs - Brown University Students
Donation protected
On Thursday, January 17, 2019, four students from Brown University were involved in a tragic car accident. Those involved were Maryori Conde, Ricardo Wemiz, Jeffrey Benes, and Angel Ortiz. All were close friends and lived together in the Brown community with five other roommates.
It is with a heavy heart to share the sad news of the passing of Maryori Conde. She recently began a masters teaching program at Brown University. She wanted to become a high school history teacher to serve low-income, first generation students. She had aspirations to make a change in the world to help others.
Maryori will be transported from Rhode Island to her hometown in California, where she will be laid to rest.
Currently, Ricardo Wemiz is still hospitalized in critical condition with serious injuries.
We are trying to raise money to help ease some of the financial burden for those affected by this horrific tragedy. We want to make sure the injured students’ immediate family can be with them to provide support. They will have to endure medical expenses, as well as transportation, housing, and food expenses to attend Maryori’s funeral services.
Please keep Maryori Conde, her friends, family and all who were affected by this tragic accident in your prayers.
We would like to extend our sincere gratitude and appreciation for all the thoughtful gestures and sentiments provided. Our heartfelt thanks to Brown University and the entire Brown Community for all the emotional and financial support provided to the affected students and their families.
It is unknown at this time the amount of financial support needed. Any assistance of any kind is greatly appreciated during this difficult time. Thank you in advance!
