Philanthropic Organization Founder

Through her non-profit charity, Elysium Gives, Elyse Bensusan has been able to help individuals and families transition from local shelters into more permanent housing by providing them with basic household needs, new beds, and furniture.  For many recipients of Elysium Gives' services, these items are more than just material possessions—they represent a fresh start and the promise of a better future. Elyse's charity is not just about giving material things; it is about restoring dignity and hope to those who have faced adversity.
