Our Story…..
On December 27th, 2022, a ray of sunshine entered the world with the arrival of Elleanor "Ella" Claire Bergeron. From the moment she graced us with her presence, Ella's sweet demeanor and radiant spirit captivated the hearts of all who knew her. Her infectious joy had a magical way of brightening even the darkest of days, turning frowns into smiles with just a single glance.
Tragically, on April 1st, 2023, our beloved Ella was called away from us, leaving a void in our hearts that could never be filled. However, in her passing, she bestowed upon others the most precious gift of all - the gift of life. Through her selfless act of organ donation, Ella continues to live on, touching the lives of those she has helped save.
In the face of such loss, we were inspired to create the Elleanor Claire Memorial Foundation, a tribute to Ella's enduring legacy of love and generosity. In partnership with the Louisiana Organ Procurement Agency (LOPA), our mission is to honor not only Ella but all children who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the sake of others.
As we continue on this journey, we are reminded of the profound impact one small act of kindness can have on the world. Ella's legacy teaches us to be the light we wish to see in the world, spreading love, compassion, and hope wherever we go. Through our efforts, we aim to honor her memory and bring comfort to organ donors' families, friends, and communities alike.
