San Francisco, California – The Fil-Am community in California has rallied behind the young daughter of Jasmine Monique del Mar, a Filipina-American single mother tragically lost in a recent murder-suicide in Pleasanton. An overwhelming response to the crowdfunding campaign has surpassed the initial goal, demonstrating solidarity and compassion for the family’s loss.
Jasmine, remembered fondly as a devoted mother to her 10-year-old daughter Sofia, was highly regarded in the beauty industry and cherished by many. The campaign, led by Riza Angeles, aims to financially support Sofia as she navigates life without her beloved mother.
As donations continue to pour in, surpassing $32,000, the community’s outpouring of love and support speaks volumes about Jasmine’s impact. Despite exceeding the fundraising target, the campaign remains active, reflecting the ongoing need for assistance.
The circumstances surrounding Jasmine’s tragic death, reportedly at the hands of her ex-boyfriend, underscore the urgent need for awareness and action against domestic violence. Joanne del Rosario, president of a local domestic violence prevention group, emphasizes the importance of understanding the dynamics of abuse and offering support to those in need.
As the community mourns Jasmine’s untimely passing, efforts to support her daughter Sofia are a testament to the collective spirit of compassion and solidarity within the Fil-Am community.
