Help McKinley Save His Home & Launch His Life’s Work

Short Summary:

I am facing the urgent threat of eviction after falling victim to a $75,000 fraud. I need your help to secure my housing and stabilize my life so I can continue building the coaching, music, and storytelling work that has been my life’s purpose in recent years. I have been experiencing great momentum with my business development, and I'm committed to keeping that momentum going.

My Story:

My name is McKinley Williams, and my life has always been about purpose, creativity, and helping others find their voice. I’ve spent decades as a leader, a singer-songwriter, and now as a transformational coach helping people move from soul suppression to soul expression.

But earlier this year, I became the victim of a devastating $75,000 financial fraud. Overnight, my savings and safety net were wiped out. I’ve been doing everything I can to stay afloat, but now I am behind on rent and facing the very real possibility of losing my home.

I’m already working with my bank and have engaged a law firm to recover my funds, but there is no guarantee that anything will come from those efforts.

This GoFundMe is my urgent lifeline. With your help, I can:

- Pay back rent and stop eviction proceedings.

- Provide housing for the next 3-4 months while I liquidate my possessions, locate less expensive housing and move to that new housing.

- And doing all of the above while completing and launching my work—including my coaching program, my new album (Songs in the Great Turning), and a one-man performance project about my Montana roots.

Why This Matters:

This isn’t just about survival—it’s about protecting the space and stability I need to bring forward work that heals, uplifts, and unifies.

Your gift doesn’t just help me keep a roof over my head—it helps ensure that my vision can continue:

- A coaching practice that guides people into their higher purpose.

- Music that speaks to the heart of our nation's collective struggles and hopes.

- A performance piece that tells my family’s story of resilience and courage.

How You Can Help:

My immediate goal is to raise $25,000 to:

- Cover back rent and legal costs.

- Provide 4–5 months of stable housing while I find a less costly housing solution

- Allow for the time needed to begin generating revenue from my business endeavors and secure long-term sustainability.

Any contribution—large or small—will make an immediate impact. Even if you can’t give, sharing this campaign with your network would mean the world to me.

With Gratitude:

This is not an easy ask. I’ve spent my life helping others, and now I need to ask for help myself. From the bottom of my heart—thank you for reading, for caring, and for standing with me in this critical moment.

With love and gratitude,

McKinley Williams
