Hello friends, family, and compassionate strangers—

My name is Destinnie, and I’m writing this with a humble heart and a lot of hope. Just a few months ago, my husband, our three little ones, and I packed everything we owned into a U‑Haul and moved states for what we thought would be a fresh start. We left behind our entire support system. We’re at the point where we’re choosing between rent and groceries, wondering how to keep the lights on, and feeling the crushing weight of uncertainty every day. It’s a scary place to be, especially so far from the family that usually helps us through hard times.
