Keep Paul’s Family Together

Donation protected
Please help my friend Paul keep his family together he has 72 hours!Many of you may know Paul, and for those of you who don’t, Paul is one of the most loving, caring, and loyal people I know. When I first met Paul he was raising his two daughters on his own. I had never witnessed a single father such as this before, as I was so used to the narrative of men abandoning their children and not the other way around.I must say I was very amazed at what a dedicated and responsible father he was, with little to no financial or emotional support from the mother at all. Paul has played both mother and father to his girls Makaycia and Iniyah since they were 1 and 2 years old. And to his credit has never bashed or verbally berated their mother to them. He always has tried to keep their mother a presence in their life even when she would disappear for months at a time, Paul always made sure to tell his girls their mother loves them.When Makaycia and Iniyah were 5 and 6 , Paul met a wonderful and beautiful woman by the name of Camile. They fell madly in love and Camile also fell in love with the girls.Paul and Camile’s marriage was not only a blessing for Paul but in my opinion was the missing link to make Paul’s family a whole - in the traditional sense. Soon after Paul and Camille had two more children to spread even more of their love, two more amazing little girls Zariyah and Lyric. It’s easy to say my friend has his hands full with all those ladies, and yet he takes on the responsibility with Grace and determination that is very admirable.He started his own company Pampered Poopers, as well as working independently as a Uber and Lyft driver. His Entrepreneurial spirit and positivity is awe inspiring. He is an accomplished poet and public speaker and along with his Mother, Melvina has a non profit organization called We All Care and has fed thousands of homeless and hungry people yet still finds time to be a wonderful husband, son, friend, brother and my best friend.I am writing this to ask for your help. Paul and Camile received a rare opportunity to relocate to Orlando. Where they found the perfect family home, in a great neighborhood, with good schools and great potential for their family. Paul, to his credit always taking his older daughters mother in to account, respectfully and responsibly advised her that this is a wonderful opportunity for the girls where they could prosper in a thriving successful environment. He is even willing to drive to Boynton Beach every weekend, where the Mother lives, in order for the girls to stay with their mother every weekend.The Mother is trying to stop this from happening. She has hired a lawyer and is trying to stop the girls from moving with Paul and Camile. Who have them 95% of the time. Paul has represented himself through out this process without legal council, due to the overwhelming expense and having to travel back and fourth from Orlando to South Florida until a Judge give permission to move with the other half of his family in Orlando. However on July 9th this is the most important hearing yet. On July 9th, this hearing will determine wether his family gets to stay together and begin their new journey together or continue living separately and possibly being kept apart.Please give whatever you can in order to help Paul and Camille retain a lawyer to aid in this case, as the mother has lawyered up and is trying to separate them from the girls for good. Paul has only 72 hours to retain the attorney for the July 9th court date.Please give whatever you can from your heart- Every little bit helps.
