Anyone privileged enough to cross paths with Els Dupont knew how deeply she loved, how vibrantly she lived, and how wholeheartedly she showed up for others. Whether it was sharing a meal, a beautiful view, or one of her hugs that made you feel wholly seen, Els was always there to lend a hand or simply share a laugh when we needed it.
The road ahead for her family is a challenging one. As they navigate this heartbreaking loss, we are asking those who knew and loved Els to help support Jeroen and her son, Ian.Β There are significant expenses ahead, including funeral arrangements, bringing Els's ashes home to Belgium, and organizing a memorial there where her family and friends can come together to remember her and say goodbye.Β

How can you help?
- Contribute. If you are able to offset some of the cost for funeral arrangements, please contribute what you are able/comfortable through this fundraiser. We picked SupportNow rather than GoFundMe as the fees were less - allowing more funds to get to Jeroen.
- Share. "Share" this page to spread the word to family and friends we may not have contact information for.
- Bring food. If you are looking to do more, please consider joining our meal train to bring Jeroen and her son meals for the foreseeable future as they navigate their new situation. Here is the link: https://www.mealtrain.com/trains/280gqm

Follow. Lastly, 'Follow' the updates to stay informed as plans for a memorial here in Washington and one in Belgium are forthcoming.
Thank you in advance for your thoughtful and generous support in this heartbreaking and challenging time. I humbly ask we show up for Jeroen & Ian the way Els showed up for us <3
