Car Trouble and Rebuilding our Life

Hi, my name is Lindsey. I am mother of 2 beautiful boys. This is not an easy thing for me to share and honestly the last thing I wanted to do, especially in these difficulty times when everyone is struggling — but I’m learning that asking for help is a form of strength.

I recently made the very difficult but necessary decision to leave a situation that was no longer safe or healthy for me or my child. It took everything in me to walk away, but I knew I had to choose peace, healing, and a better future for both of us.

We are now starting completely over. I left with very little, but I left with hope. I’m currently in the middle of a custody process, doing everything I can to make sure my child has the stability, care, and consistency they deserve. At the same time, I’m working to rebuild our lives — I’ve secured housing. After a month and a half of driving back and forth to Virginia for work, I was able to transfer my job back here to PA and just secured a second job.

To make things even more difficult, my car recently broke down. It was our only mode of transportation — to daycare, work, legal appointments, and everything in between. The timing couldn’t have been worse, and it’s added even more stress to an already overwhelming situation.

As you can imagine, the financial burden is heavy. Legal fees, living expenses, and child-related costs all add up quickly, especially while trying to regain footing as a single parent. That’s why I’ve created this fundraiser — not out of weakness, but out of determination to keep moving forward.

Your support will go directly toward everyday living costs and a new car, while I try to manage paying legal fees to fight for my child.

If you’re able to give, I can’t thank you enough. If not, simply sharing this with others would mean the world to me.

God has worked miracles in our lives already and I know he is continuing to do that, if you can’t donate, please just pray for us.

I’m committed to building a safe, loving, and stable life for my children — and every little bit helps us get closer to that goal. Thank you for seeing us, believing in us, and standing with us.

With Gratitude,

Lindsey
