Rebuilding After Heartbreaking Loss

Donation protected

Earlier this month, my dear friend CC shared a deeply vulnerable message with me—one that reflects the profound grief and overwhelming loss she has endured over the past year.

In a matter of months, CC has faced one life-altering transition after another: the loss of her marriage, her home, the passing of her beloved father, and now, the loss of her car. Each of these events is monumental on its own, but together, they’ve created a storm of heartbreak that no one should have to navigate alone.

Grief often isolates us, yet CC has shown immense courage in allowing herself to be witnessed in her experience and opening her heart to receive support. This openness is something I deeply admire, as it reminds me how moments like these invite us to lean into community, even when it feels most difficult.

I’ve created this GoFundMe to rally around CC, who has poured so much love, care, and wisdom into the lives of others. She has held space for so many, and now it’s our turn to hold her. I truly believe she is so deserving of the same support and compassion she has offered so freely.

When our sense of safety and stability is shaken, healing can feel impossible. My prayer is that, through our collective love and generosity, we can provide CC with a little more safety and security as she navigates this sacred chapter of her life.

Whether it’s through a financial contribution, sharing this fundraiser, or sending love and encouragement, every gesture of support makes a meaningful difference. Let’s come together to remind CC that she is not alone—and that she is deeply loved.

The funds from this GoFundMe will help CC pay for debts incurred from a cancelled wedding party, divorce expenses, and help her get back on her feet.
