It is with heavy hearts we share that one of our disaster justice colleagues, Felicia Collins who has been on the front lines serving the Lake Charles community, and the surrounding region, after Hurricane Laura, and the winter storms, has lost her husband to COVID-19 yesterday.
Despite her suffering some of the same losses of home and stability, she has worked directly with the community to help any and everyone she could. We'd like to take this opportunity to help her with her expenses to help lift the burden.
If you would like to contribute, there is a link through the Lowlander Center to contribute to the Collins family. 100% of all the funds will go directly to the family. Thank you for your support of Mrs. Felicia Collins and her family. paypal.com/donate?hosted_but…
