What our supporters are saying
I'm so glad we came, not only to offer our support but to learn about the foundation. I really didn't understand what you guys are building and how desperately it's needed. We were so moved by it all. You have our unconditional lifetime support!Cathy Rechs
We are so happy we were able to attend the first fundraiser for the Olivia Chan foundation. It was so touching to see all of the friends and family who came out to support Mel and Reina. We admire all of the work they have done and will continue to do through this wonderful foundation. Richard Parrott
We all experience life changing events some of which happen when we least expect it. Being a part of Brewing Hope, an evening to Help, Honor, and Heal, was one of those events for my wife and I. The Olivia Chan Foundation is serving a very under-served part of our community by helping families deal with unprecedented grief with the loss of a child or loved one. My wife, a Nurse and first responder, and I, a retired Police Officer of twenty-Five years know all to well the devastation this type of loss can have on a family.
The Olivia Chan Foundation is dedicated to keeping her legacy of love and kindness for others alive in all of us. Brewing Hope brought people together who genuinely believe in her foundation and the change Olivia is making in all our lives. It was an absolute honor to share this evening with so many dedicated and strong people. My wife and I look forward to supporting the Olivia Chan Foundation and her incredible parents, Mel & Reina and their entire family as they along with Oliva change lives. ❤️Sid DeJesus
