Hello Family and Friends,

I’m reaching out to ask for support for someone very close to my heart; my sister-in-law. Madalena is an incredible single mom raising three amazing kids here in the Bay Area, and right now, she’s going through a really tough season.

About two months ago, she was laid off from her job. Since then, she has been applying everywhere and doing everything she can to get back on her feet, but as many know, the job market has been challenging. Despite it all, she continues to stay strong for her kids.

She is one of the most hardworking, compassionate people I know; always showing up for others, always finding the good in people and situations, even when things are hard. Right now, she’s facing mounting stress with car issues and her savings running low.

I’ve set up this GoFundMe to help ease some of that burden and give her a little breathing room while she continues her job search. If you’re able to contribute, any amount would mean so much. And if you’re not in a position to give, sharing this or connecting her with any job opportunities would be incredibly appreciated.

Please also keep her and her kids in your thoughts and prayers during this time.

She would probably be a little upset with me for doing this, but I just want to do whatever I can to support and lift her up, because she truly deserves it.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support
