Jody Marchand
FOUNDER
Jody created LIVE FOR LIV FOUNDATION in honor of the memory of Olivia Marchand by continuing the joy, love & dedication Olivia brought to every moment. Dedicates her work to helping others understanding domestic violence and providing resources to help them find their way out of abuse.
Colleen Murphy
President
When I first moved to Westford MA, Jody Marchand was my mortgage broker. Over the years, we had connected a couple of times for refinancing my mortgage. One time when we talked I could tell that we were both experiencing some type of emotional abuse from our spouses. When Olivia was killed and Jody hospitalized I began learning the process for protecting my family with the support of the Westford Police Department. Because of Jody’s experience I was able to safely protect my children from their father before something terribly tragic occurred to us.
