Support Brizzo & Students Recovery After Tragic Accident

My name is Angelica Sanchez, and I’m a board member of The Good Good Collective, where I have the privilege of working alongside Brizzo Torres. Brizzo is an extraordinary arts educator & founder of The Good Good Collective who has dedicated her life to fostering creativity and connection within communities in NYC, San Antonio, and Tulum, Mexico since 2020.

We need your help this holiday season. I’m raising these funds because Brizzo and her Tulum students were involved in a devastating accident in Tulum, Mexico. While volunteering at a holiday community school event, Brizzo was struck and pinned under a state police truck while 5 of her young elementary and middle school students beared witness to the tragic accident. At the time, Brizzo was helping those local students prepare to cheer on marathon runners with holiday songs and encouragement.

Brizzo’s injuries are severe including a Traumatic Brain Injury and a cervical sprain. Her recovery will require extensive medical care and support. Additionally, the traumatized students involved in the incident are in need of psychological counseling and emotional support after experiencing such a traumatic event.

Your support will go toward medical expenses, travel expenses, lost wages, therapy, and legal fees to ensure that justice is served. These funds will also be able to support The Good Good Collectives continued efforts to support and uplift our local communities so that our mission is not derailed.

Thank you for standing with Brizzo, the students, and our community during this critical time. We hope that your holidays are safe, joyful and spent with those you love.
