Chicago, IL – The community is coming together to support the family of Dulce Velez, a beloved member of the Lakeshore community, who recently passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. Dulce, who was known for her vibrant spirit and infectious smile, has left a lasting impact on all who knew her.
Dulce Velez was described by those close to her as a radiant soul full of life, love, and happiness. She was the life of every gathering, bringing joy and laughter wherever she went. Her presence was enough to light up a room, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of her friends and family.
In honor of Dulce’s final wish, a fundraiser has been organized by The Anayas to help fulfill her desire to be buried in her homeland, the Dominican Republic. The family is facing the significant financial burden of transporting her remains, a process that involves navigating bureaucratic complexities. The fundraiser aims to alleviate some of this burden during an already challenging time for the Velez family.
The goal of the fundraiser is to raise $5,000, and the community is being called upon to contribute whatever they can to help make Dulce’s final wish a reality. The family of Dulce Velez, including her son Wilmer and other loved ones, are deeply grateful for any support during this difficult time.
As of now, the fundraiser is still in its early stages, and the community is encouraged to donate and share the cause widely. Dulce’s memory continues to inspire those who knew her, and this fundraiser offers a way for everyone to honor her in a meaningful way.
Donations can be made through the GoFundMe page organized by The Anayas, with all proceeds going towards fulfilling Dulce’s wish and supporting her family through this difficult period.
