We are close family friends of a mother who is living through a heartbreaking and dangerous situation. For her privacy and safety, names and identifying details cannot be shared — but the need is real, urgent, and devastating.
This mother is trying to raise her children under circumstances no parent should ever face. Her husband has been withholding basic financial support, including money for groceries, school tuition, and essential medical bills.
Because of this, the kids’ medical care is actively being cut off. She has no access to the funds meant to protect their health.
On top of that, he has:
• Cut her off from all joint accounts
• Seized legal documents
• Installed surveillance devices inside and outside the home
• Uses charm, fear and manipulation to mislead others who try to help
• Refuses to listen to rabbanim and beis din, ignoring their rulings and refusing to provide
• Refuses to pay tuition bills
Behind closed doors, he uses control, fear, and intimidation to keep her trapped — financially, emotionally, and physically. She is now left raising several young children completely alone, without money, without support, and without the ability to keep up with even the most basic needs.
There are seven young, helpless, afraid children to support, the youngest is only 6 year old. They are left defenseless and helpless.
We are setting up this GoFundMe to help her cover:
• Groceries and basic household needs
• Children’s medical and dental care
• Legal support and advocacy
• Yeshiva and bais yaakov tuition
• Emergency funds to ensure safety and stability
Every dollar truly makes a difference.
Every act of kindness lifts a weight she should never have had to carry.
If you are able, maaser may be used for this cause, as this is a case of genuine need and pikuach nefesh–level concern for minors.
If you cannot donate, please share — spreading this campaign helps protect these children and gives their mother a fighting chance.
Thank you for helping this mother and her children breathe, heal, and rebuild during the darkest chapter of their lives.
— A close family friend
