RIP Jose Velasquez - Que Descanse en Paz

Donation protected
We were saddened to learn of the death of Jose Velasquez, a friend and union member at the World Bank.  Jose worked as a cook for 13 years in the cafeteria in the IFC Building.  He was working at the Grill Station before the World Bank shut down in March. Jose died as a result of COVID-19 infection.

Jose's brother also died of coronavirus infection several weeks prior. These funds are to help the family with the funeral costs after experiencing so much loss in such a short time.
