🇨🇴
I’m asking my friends, family, and amazing clients for help during a very difficult time for my family and our community in Pereira, Colombia.
We were just in Colombia last month, and it breaks my heart to see the devastation caused by the earthquake. I lived in Colombia until I was 9, and most of my family still lives there. Thankfully, my family is safe, but their homes have been severely damaged.
My aunt’s home literally split in half and is no longer livable. My dad’s apartment is also unlivable, with significant damage throughout the inside, especially because his apartment is on the first floor of a four-story building.
They are now facing the overwhelming reality of finding somewhere safe to stay, repairing what can be repaired, and replacing things that were lost or damaged.
I’m starting this fundraiser to help my family and others in our community who have been affected. Any donation, no matter the amount, will make a difference. And if you aren’t able to donate, simply sharing this post can help us reach someone who can.
To my clients and friends who have supported me and my business over the years, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your support means more than you know.
🇨🇴 Please consider donating or sharing. Every little bit helps.
