Help Mechack Jérôme & Family Recover After Home Explosion

On the night of October 31st, Mechack Jérôme and his family were cooking food when their Bellevue home exploded. Mechack, as well as his wife and another family member, were rushed to the hospital with serious injuries, while their duplex has been condemned.

Jérôme is a well-established soccer player, having won an MLS Cup with Sporting Kansas City in 2013, and proudly captaining the Haitian national team many times in his 80 appearances for his country. He had joined Union Omaha soccer club this year, providing a valuable veteran presence for the club, and had settled into the Omaha area with his family.

This fundraiser serves two purposes: one, to aid the Jerome family with the medical expenses in treating their severe injuries from the explosion, and two, to provide support for their children while both Mechack and his wife recover.

Any amount donated will be greatly appreciated as the family heals from this, and any word that can be spread about this campaign will also be a much-needed boost.

We at Union Omaha soccer club thank you for your kindness and support as we rally around the Jerome family at this time.

Union Omaha is working directly with Mechack's sister in law, Aaliyah, to receive the funds on behalf of Mechack and his wife. We will transfer the funds to Mechack's family outside of GoFundMe to support them during this time.
