Help Us Recover from a Car Accident

In November 2024, our friend group took a trip to Cape Breton to celebrate a birthday. We rented a big van to fit all 6 of us and had an amazing time visiting Cabot Trail. On our way back to Halifax, a deer unexpectedly ran across the highway and clipped the front left of our rental van. It destroyed the front left mirror, smashed the left side door and shattered the rear window. Two friends in the back were covered in cuts and broken glass, but we’re extremely grateful that nobody received any serious injury.

When booking the rental van, we purchased what we thought was “full coverage”. It turns out though that the “full coverage” insurance provided by the third-party rental company was limited up to only $1,700, and the bill given to us by the rental company totals $10078.31.

Most of the friend group has immigrated to Canada within the past 2 years, and this unexpected expense is an extremely difficult setback. We are reaching out to our community for help. Any contribution you make will help us pay off the remaining balance on the bill and getting us back on our feet.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for any support you can provide.
