We haven’t been able to come home to America for over five years, mostly due to lack of money, worries about traveling by myself with small children, and then there was Covid, of course.

Sadly, there has been a major death in my family. It is imperative that my children (Zohra & Chedli) and I go and be with them as soon as possible.

Plane tickets to Los Angeles from Tunisia are not affordable for me right now, at about $800 each (and going up as the days pass). Also, because I’m at the beginning of building my business, we don’t have any savings. The timing isn’t great–I was hoping to earn and save the money myself and travel later this year, but we really need to go now.

I am desperate to grieve together with my family. It’s painful to be so far away from Bronwyn and Dylan right now.

I didn’t want to have to start a fundraising campaign for myself, but it is an emergency and I need to reach out and ask for help and support during this difficult time.

All my love and gratitude for your generosity and help during this challenging time in my life.
