Housing Crisis & Medical Expenses

Donation protected

My name is Andrea Lopez-Diaz, I currently live in Seattle but the rest of my family lives in Sacramento, CA. I am the daughter of 2 extremely hard working parents from Mexico. They both work over 40 hours per week at minimum wage. They are supporting my 2 younger sisters through college, one who graduates with a BA next year! Update:my little sister was Diagnosed with Leukemia this week. She will have to move back home and leave school for chemotherapy. I've raised the goal in hopes of covering medical expenses and an extra room. 

Last week, their landlord told them they have 30 days to find someplace else to live. The property is being sold to developers. As people that work low wage jobs and supporting two college students, they don't have the savings to cover such costs. I've tried to help them as much as I could but, I also do not have the means to pay for their entire moving expenses. I'm hoping to raise 2,500 for them by September 25th  to help pay for applications, deposits, first/last month, U-haul, and the time they are missing from work to find housing in less than 30 days. 

I am making this ask from Seattle because my parents are very proud people and wouldn't want family or friends to know back home in Sacramento. My folks are super traditional and would never ask me to do this but I can't stand by and do nothing. Your help would be so appreciated in such a stressful time. No amount is too small and sharing this helps just as much. Thank you! <3
