  • For four years, Mr. Marc LaPointe’s wife, Di, has suffered from Long COVID. This condition has significantly disrupted every area of their life together and has taken Di’s mobility. A Long COVID study that would provide advanced medical treatment recently accepted Mrs. LaPointe. The cost of the study, however, is $8,000. Therefore, the Lower School faculty put together the GoFundMe page to assist the LaPointe family as they seek to join this study.  Thank you for your prayerful consideration. GoFundMe link https://gofund.me/90ae3422
