Build a Brighter Future for Summer and Steven

Donation protected
My name is Valerie Miller. On 3/25/2025, my half-sister Amanda Duke (Brock), 35, unexpectedly passed away and left behind 3 children: Owen, Summer, and Steven. Owen lives with his dad in another state, but 11-year-old Summer and 9-year-old Steven lived with their mom. Their dad passed away a few years ago, so Amanda’s mom, Lori, and stepfather, Brad, will be raising them from here on out.

The reason I am asking for financial help is because, due to the age of the children, they cannot share a room, and at this time, there is only one bedroom available for them. Lori and Brad will have to build onto their home to accommodate both Summer and Steven. The kids have been through so much already and deserve to have a nice bedroom and their own space. Any money raised will go directly to helping pay for the costs of that and to help them settle in and adjust to this new reality they are all facing. Amanda had no life insurance, so the costs associated with her passing and her children have fallen on her family, so any help at all is appreciated. Thank you so much!
