Help to leave domestic violence

Donation protected
Hi my name is Elijah I've never done this before my mother's name is Chloe and we've lived in a domestic house hold for over 10 years we have had police over at the house over 20 times over the years my step dad is the reason for all of this in that photo was the latest assault to my mother after I had to defend her from my step dad from attacking her and myself my mother dosnt know ive made this go fund me but she wants to move out since we are really poor as she cant work because of her medical conditions we are stuck in a loop all her life shes been abused by men and I want to give back to her and surprise her with support
Story of photo:that night i caught my step dad filling up a fire extinguisher with petrol i asked him what it was for and he said that people are out to get him(he has drug induced psychosis) he said that he would technically screw the neighbours house shut and spray it down with the fuel and then burn them and their kids inside, i then took the fire extinguisher away hid it and called the police once he found out the police were coing he then lunged at me my mother (Chloe) was in between us he hit me over the head several times pushed me to the ground at this point my mother was in his face grabbing him to stop and he starting throwing her around i got up and tackled him to the ground and then took my mother and my younger brother(hunter aged 10) to my room as I have a lock we waited for police to arrive once they arrived they took my step dad in only for the night and took my mother in as she had 2 drinks of champagne they both got released at around 5 am the next morning the police didnt take his weapons no photos of the assault and did not take the fire extinguisher.
I am looking to surprise my mother with enough money to move house
I have hundreds of other stories of me being a kid watching my mother been slammed over tables and being hit myself and more photos from over the years all I am looking for is some help so we can get out of this situation that has been taking place for years thank you all
