Help Us Honor Chiquita's Legacy

Our mother, Chiquita Felder-Stephenson, was a pillar of strength, love, and support for our family and the entire community. She opened her heart and home to countless individuals, providing a safe haven where people could find peace, encouragement, and a helping hand when they needed it most.

She faced life’s challenges with remarkable resilience, overcoming nine heart surgeries, fluid in her brain, and a previous battle with breast cancer. When she was diagnosed with an aggressive form of triple-negative breast cancer, she fought with the same unyielding strength that defined her.

She closed her eyes for eternal rest on Sunday, March 9, 2025, in Nairobi, Kenya. We are so proud of her! She passed away doing what she loved building communities on a global level. We will make sure her legacy lives on in Kenya.

Now, as we grieve this incredible loss, we face unexpected financial challenges, including medical expenses and the cost of bringing her home to the United States. We are reaching out to our friends, family, and community for support. Any donation, no matter how small, will make a difference. And if you’re unable to give, simply sharing this fundraiser would mean the world to us.

Your kindness and generosity mean the world to us as we navigate this difficult time. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your love and support. ❤️
