Daughter: Alexis, age 18
Jamelle’s story is one of profound resilience in the face of unimaginable tragedy. A devoted mother to her daughter, Alexis, Jamelle’s life changed forever with the unexpected loss of her husband, Damien, a few years ago.
Jamelle’s journey has been marked by both hardship and triumph. Known affectionately in their community as “Mr. and Mrs. Coach,” Jamelle and Damien were a great team and shared a passion for supporting and inspiring others.
Now, Jamelle and Alexis are seeking a fresh start. Their future Habitat for Humanity home will provide them with the stability and peace they need to heal. For Jamelle and Alexis, the home and its affordable mortgage represents financial independence, stability and strength, as well as offers both a sanctuary where they will have roots and a place of their own to call home. Their journey is a powerful reminder of the strength of the human spirit and the transformative power of community support.
