Help Charissa Carrino-Hoffman's Surviving Family

Charissa Lavita Carrino-Hoffman passed away unexpectedly at the age of 35 on Monday, November 23, 2020 leaving behind two beautiful young children, Ava (14 years old) and Gavin (9 years old). Charissa was a caring, intelligent, and vibrant woman who cared deeply for her children, family, and friends. She gave to others even when she had nothing, and she had very little monetary wealth and few possessions due an illness that placed her on disability many years ago. She had no life insurance or savings of any kind at the time of her passing. Due to the suddenness of her death, her immediate family has assumed all financial burdens and responsibilities in preparation for her funeral services, burial, and other expenses.

Many members of Charissa’s family have felt COVID-19’s indiscriminating economic impacts this year and are already suffering financially. The expenses they face to bury Charissa are placing additional worry and grief upon a family still reeling from the loss of a mother, a daughter, and a sister.

Her family is seeking help to fund Charissa’s funeral services and other expenses, as well as leave her children with some financial assistance for their future. Any funds exceeding the cost of the funeral will be placed in a college fund for her children, Ava and Gavin Hoffman.

There is no donation amount too small. Every penny can help ease the financial hardships set before them. Charissa’s family and children send you their deepest gratitude and thanks for any generosity you can show them.
