Ebony: A story of Help and Hope

Donation protected
Dear friends, many of us are so blessed, and I don’t know about you, but I’m always on the lookout for ways to pay it forward. Well, here is an opportunity to do just that.

We have started this GoFundMe to help our friend Ebony.

Sue and Ebony first met while Ebony was helping to care for Sue's mom during her time in assisted living. They became fast friends as Sue watched how Ebony cared for her mom!

Ebony has been struggling with her health since birth, but more recently, has encountered some more serious issues. In August of 2024, Ebony was diagnosed with stomach cancer, and in January of 2025, suffered a heart attack while at work. These events caused her to lose her job, taking away her only source of income, which in turn has caused her to lose her car. All of this has left her struggling to make ends meet.

Ebony lost her husband to a motorcycle accident in 2021, which left her to care for 3 boys on her own. While one is grown, she still has two young children, ages 10 and 7, at home to care for.

Ebony’s faith, joy, and kindness, along with her generous and hard-working character, are obvious to all who know her. We would like to see that love and generosity shown back to her during this difficult time. She is currently in the process of seeking assistance, but unfortunately, these days, it can be quite a difficult and lengthy process, so we hope this will help to stand in the gap for her and her children.

We invite you to join us in helping Ebony and her boys while they walk this difficult road. No amount is too small and they are so very grateful for any help. Monies raised will help pay for their bills, food, and day-to-day needs.

Please consider helping in any way you can. Thank you!
