Hey, thanks for reading about our situation; Every child deserves to grow up knowing both parents are showing up for them. My name is Justin, father of two amazing kids — Kingsley (3) and Leilani (10). Over the past year, I’ve been blessed with the chance to step fully into fatherhood and rebuild my bond with Leilani after nearly a decade apart. Her mother, Jessenia, has always been steady in her life, and I honor her for that. Now it’s my turn to do my part — by creating a stable foundation where my children can grow with me, spend time with me, and see their futures secured. ⸻ The Journey In January 2024, I came home from prison with nothing but a promise to God: I will be the father my children deserve. Since then, I’ve built UVIBE Solutions LLC, poured myself into raising Kingsley, and been blessed to reconnect with Leilani. She chose forgiveness and welcomed me back into her life — a gift of grace I’ll never forget. This year, Leilani was baptized. Watching her take that step of faith reminded me that God is not only restoring me, but also calling me to build something lasting for my children’s future. ⸻ The Need Right now, my biggest challenge is stable housing in Poinciana, Florida — a 4–5 bedroom home where Kingsley and Leilani can be with me consistently. This isn’t about replacing the love and stability they already have with their mom — it’s about making sure they also have a place with their dad where they can grow, learn, and thrive. At the same time, I want to: • Support Leilani’s entrepreneurial spirit (she’s already dreaming of her own brand at 10 years old). • Lay the foundation for Sacred Soil, a nonprofit that will one day serve families, youth, and those reentering society. ⸻ The Goal We are raising $100,000 to cover: • $30K–$50K → Down payment & furnishings for a family home in Poinciana • $30K–$50K → Legal & family stability support • $5K–$10K → Leilani’s youth business fund & trust account • $10K+ → Sacred Soil nonprofit startup Funds will go into the UVIBE Family Legacy Trust, so what is built now carries into future generations. ⸻ How Your Gift Helps • $100 → School supplies & clothing • $250 → Launches Leilani’s first youth product • $500 → Strengthens family stability • $1,000+ → Brings us closer to securing a lasting home ⸻ Closing Word This campaign isn’t about me alone. It’s about children who deserve consistency, love, and opportunity. When you give, you are investing in a daughter who stepped into baptism, a little boy growing with his father, and a future where their lives are built on faith, stability, and legacy. Please consider donating, sharing, and praying with us. Every gift is a seed — and together, those seeds will grow into a future our children can thrive in. With gratitude, Justin / UVIBE Legacy ✝️❤️
