Silvia Murillo via GoFundMe
From the GoFundMe:
“On July 8, my 74 year-old mother was randomly attacked at the Safeway on Columbia Road. The assault continued where she was punched, kicked and even struck with the attacker’s shoe. Her injuries required an emergency room visit. A week later she can still barely walk, with bruises and welts sustained on her legs and lower body.
Silvia has lived in the Adams Morgan community for 40 years, operating a number of second-hand business in that time. She is an Original who has always shown kindness and generosity to strangers and friends alike, often putting the needs of others before her own.
I am very appreciative to the community who have made calls in support of her full recovery in this unfortunate time. Any donation will go toward assisting her in meeting her monthly bills. Thanks.”
