Glerason is the kind of person who quietly carries more than most, yet continues to show up every single day with strength, compassion, and determination. As a devoted single mother, she works tirelessly to provide a stable and loving environment for her daughter, always putting her child’s needs ahead of her own. Her dedication doesn’t stop at home—she is also a committed lifestyle staff member, supporting others with care, patience, and professionalism, even while facing her own challenges.
Beyond her role as a mother and professional, Glerason is a deeply devoted daughter. She plays a critical role in caring for her disabled, wheelchair-bound father, ensuring he is safe, comfortable, and treated with dignity. Balancing these responsibilities is no small task, and yet she manages it with unwavering love and resilience. However, the physical and emotional demands are compounded by financial strain, making everyday life increasingly difficult.
Right now, Glerason and her family are facing an urgent need: a safe, accessible home that can properly accommodate her father’s mobility needs while providing a secure space for her daughter to grow up in. An accessible home would not only improve her father’s quality of life but also ease the daily challenges Glerason faces as a caregiver.
We are reaching out for support to help raise the funds needed to build this essential home. Any contribution, big or small, can make a meaningful difference in the lives of this hardworking and selfless family. With your help, we can give Glerason, her daughter, and her father the safe, accessible future they truly deserve.
Walt Lorgan& Roxanne Quaranta are asking for your support to help build a home for Glersan, who many of you will recognize from serving you at Saffron. Her father used to make his living as a motorcycle taxi driver. He was in a tragic accident which drastically changed thier lives and left her father confined to a wheelchair.

Our goal is to fund a 3 bedroom home on land we have purchased in Loma de la Bestia. This is where Glersan, her daughter, and her parents will live. They will be able to use the money saved by not paying rent for medication and other family health issues not discussed here.


The salary at Lifestyles is not enough to support Glersan and her daughter, as well as, care for her father and mother and helping with their expenses. Both Glersan and her parents pay rent and owning a home in Loma de la Bestia means the parents will live with Glersan and her daughter instead of living an hour apart. Glersan goes on days off to help. The added transportation costs are stretching her means which are already strained and she is so embarassed to be in this position.
We want to remind you that your support goes so much further than this home. It also provides work for the construction crews which means they can put food on their tables, send their children to school, etc.. The blessings multiply.
These are a few photos to help you understanding Glersan’s challenge. The last photo is an example of what we would like to have built for these families. We are prepared to match donations up to $10,000. A 3 bedroom home can be built for $20,000. Any amount is appreciated. Thank you
