I am creating this GoFundMe on behalf of my Uncle Ricky and my cousins. Here is their story:

For the past almost three years, Ricky has been acting as a single father to his two sons. Ricky has not been receiving support from the boys' mother for a variety of reasons that are not needed to be shared on behalf of my cousins. The boys are 10 and 8 years old and have gone through so much the last few years with everything. Ricky has been actively working to create a better life for the boys but has been handling consistent setbacks.

Recently, Ricky and the boys are experiencing issues with their housing and transportation due to Ricky's most recent ex-partner leaving their home with little notice and with Ricky being unable to support the home by himself. For transportation, the truck that Ricky owns died within the past month and has not been functional.

Ricky has been actively trying to support the boys through every step of the way, through his sobriety to the struggles they had with moving. Sometimes a little extra help is all they need to get back on their feet.
