A car for Mama Leigh

Donation protected
This Go Fund Me was created on behalf of one our community members who desperately needs help.

This so vulnerable ask is extremely difficult for her but she has been struggling for some time and has exhausted all other options. As a full time single mother of two she has more than just herself to consider.
Her co-parent and the main breadwinner for the family has Stage 4 metastasized prostate cancer and all of his efforts are around healing that. He has indicated that he will no longer be able to financially help the family.
This leaves her and her two children in a very precarious position. While she is running a business AND working various part-time jobs it is not close enough to cover rent and expenses. Right now she has an urgent need.

Her 2002 Prius is on its last legs and often won’t start. And to compound difficulties her catalytic converter recently was stolen, she took out a loan to buy a new one and she has discovered that it will not pass it’s smog. In fact her mechanic has said she should not be driving the car at all as it is unsafe to drive.

She needs a new car and has no funds to buy one (or even cover rent)

We are hoping to raise enough to get her and her kids in a safe vehicle. any extra funds raised above and beyond the cost of the car will go to therapies for the children.

Please donate and share!
Much love and gratitude,
Emma and Sarah
