Support Andrew's Family in Crisis

Donation protected
On the 16th of May, Drew was arrested & has been incarcerated ever since. To say this was a disruptor is an understatement - the loss of his income has impacted his family so drastically that we are crowdfunding for help. This is being set up at Andrew's insistence to help at a time when his abilities to take care of his family have been completely restricted.

When he was arrested, they confiscated our vehicle, leaving me without a car for everyday use, relying on Uber/Lyft to commute to work. The increase in transportation costs, topped with all the expenses of dealing with a loved one in jail in addition to the major loss in every aspect without him home now sees us fighting to save everything. Covering the cost of food and phone calls to communicate with Andrew, combined with transportation costs for work put me at a bigger deficit than before.

Obviously, we had to close his shop for the time being and we are on the cusp of losing everything we own as we find ourselves on the verge of eviction and need immediate and fast help, like yesterday, as they may lock our doors this Tuesday, July 16th. Our landlord has been fair, but understandably, business is business, and agreements are locked in. Despite our best efforts, we have no other way to get enough money together on our own, and come to you for help.

Andrew's #1 concern has been keeping me and our son safe, and now he feels completely powerless to do so. He is asking me to call on all his friends, and family - including clients that have become family over the years - if everyone would donate and share this and help us at our most vulnerable.

We need $3500 by Monday 7/14, and another $3500 before 7/30 to keep our house & everything 15 years of marriage will collect. The rest will be used for transporation, household and Drew's inside expenses and allow me to find my footing now that the initial chaos has settled & we can move forward and focus on the legal chaos to help bring Andrew home.

To all of Andrew's clients: He wanted me to be sure you knew he will remember each and every one that helps him keep his family safe & secure while he is in a position where he isn't being allowed to.

We never could have imagined being in this situation, and anyone that knows Andrew knows he would be TCB if he was actually home to do it. We are fortunate and blessed for everyone that has sat with us over the years. Doing life with all of you has been our privilege & pleasure - THANK YOU to everyone for showing your support from the start.

Nuthin' but love for you all
Forever grateful
Drew & Sara
