Emergency legal aid

Donation protected
Hey ya'll:)

Despite my stubbornness and general lack of desire in feeling exposed I am caving in. *If you have known me 10 years + this description probably doesn't apply to you because it is so apparent, but to all others here we go...
After going separate ways with Max's dad in 2012, I have lived as a single mum with primary care of a small child with very little community and no family in MA. I did this so my son could have a relationship with his dad 1.5 days/week. Over the years it hasn't been easy, but I have thankfully always made it work sparing smiles and laughter(Multiple jobs, Airbnb every weekend and all round being thrifty!)
Unfortunately, the relationship with Max's father has taken a turn and now I need legal aid to keep custody of my son. This is absolutely heartbreaking for me since Max is MY ENTIRE WORLD. I'm not only devastated, but I am also in no way financially able to represent myself in a court of law.  Since Covid-19, I have been hit hard with sudden and complete unemployment( and in the same boat as I know SO many of you are). I would be eternally grateful for any contribution for my court case on August 12th. I'm learning everyday how to hold space for myself, for others, and finding comfort in change. Feel free to call me, message me, send good vibrations, compassion or send a few bucks, it all helps heaps big or small xx
