My name is Angelena, I have struggled with the thought of making this GoFundMe, but my family and I are in desperate, dire need. We are currently facing eviction and have only until Tuesday, March 10th to pay our balance in full, or we lose our home.
We have applied for every emergency assistance program and called every resource available, but most have no funding or we do not qualify. We are truly at the end of our rope and are reaching out to our community for a miracle.
My sister and I are single moms raising my 12-year-old son and my 5-year-old niece on our own. We are also the full-time, 24-hour caregivers for our father,he is now bed bound and his health has declined tremendously
Our family has been shattered by loss it's been a blur of unimaginable tragedy. We lost my mom very suddenly and unexpectedly. Within not even a year apart my niece’s father and my other sister’s husband were tragically murdered as well .all 3 losses not even a year apart from each Losing three of the most important people in our lives in such a short time has left us broken , and reeling .
After losing my mom, I stepped up to be the backbone and the "mom figure" for our family. My sister and I have struggled and managed to keep everyone together, but the obstacles just keep coming and right now we can NOT do this alone .
My son and my niece are what keep me going. Today, March 6th, is my son’s 12th birthday. It hurts beyond words that while we should be celebrating . I'm fighting to keep him from knowing what's going on and having to worry about having a home and if we will we homeless .
He has been my rock, but he has seen and experienced far too much for someone so young. My 5-year-old niece has already lost her father; I desperately want to protect them both from the trauma of losing their home, there SAFE place
The shame of having to publish this is hard to carry, but this home is all we have. It's everything to us . Our property management requires the balance to be paid in full to secure our home.
Total Needed: $6,734.00 (to cover the past due balance and associated court/lease fees).
Deadline: Tuesday, March 10th.
We are asking for a blessing to help us stay in our home. Our safe place after so much trauma
