Help Graciela's family get back on their feet

Hi, my name is Maria, and I am fundraising for our close family friends, the Anselmi Family. As many of you know, Graciela was diagnosed in February 2021 with stage 4 breast cancer, and within a few short months, it spread throughout her entire body. While she struggled with the debilitating effects of cancer, she never gave up hope and fought the good fight every day. She fought for herself and, most importantly, for her family, who cannot imagine life without their mom at the young age of 49. Graciela bravely fought until she took her last breath on October 22, 2022.

Today, we ask that the love and support you’ve all shown their family continues as they have put their life on hold to be by Graciela’s side. As we all know, life does not wait on us, and with no Medical Insurance, these girls have taken on two jobs to help financially. While they learn to navigate their new “normal” through what feels like unbearable grief, their overall survival expenses continue to add up. Graciela has two amazing daughters, Valentina and Emilia, and a loving Husband, Chelo, who have taken care of her from the beginning and never left her side. Graciela also leaves behind a son, Vinny, and three granddaughters, Callie, Sol and Marianna. I have had the privilege of knowing this family for 10+ years and knowing firsthand how vital their mom was in their life. I ask that we come together to alleviate any additional burden and stress to the Anselmi family; your donations in this challenging time are greatly appreciated.

May Graciela’s memory be eternal.
