Champlain Towers Tragedy- Gonzalez Family Support

During the early hours of June 24th, 2021 part of the Champlain Towers-South building collapsed in Surfside, FL. The Gonzalez family was inside and fell from the 9th to the 5th floor. Deven and Angela Gonzalez were among the first to be pulled from the rubble, and the search is still ongoing for their beloved father and husband, Edgar. Both Deven and Angela have suffered multiple injuries and are currently recovering. Taylor, Deven’s older sister was not in the building at the time of the collapse and has been by their side while the family waits for news on Edgar’s recovery.

Deven is a talented junior volleyball player with high hopes to continue her career in volleyball at the collegiate and professional level. Her mother, Angela is a mental health provider who works with underserved communities in Miami and surrounding areas, Edgar is a legal professional in Miami-Dade. Their oldest daughter, Taylor works in the hospitality industry. There is also no news on their Dog, Daisy. This family is very close-knit and the Champlain tragedy has been catastrophic for them and for so many others.

The volleyball community and Deven's Coach, Ashley Woods are coming together and asking for your help in rallying to support the Gonzalez family during their time of need. They are the type of family to roll up their sleeves and do whatever is asked to help anyone in a time of need or crisis. We want to show them how much we care, and love them back. Please consider donating to help them as they go through this very difficult time. The funds collected will be used to help them rebuild their lives, since they lost everything during this tragic event. Thank you!
