On Sunday, May 19, eight-year-old Evelyn Spence passed away in a tragic car accident. She was on her way to see her brothers and sisters in Jackson, TN. Her older brother, ten-year-old DaeDae, was in the car as well and suffered a broken leg.


Evelyn’s mother, Shetika Spence, is the sole provider for her children. She has worked the same hourly job for the past three years and recently added a second hourly job to her plate in order to make ends meet. Since these are hourly jobs, no bereavement time is available and no income will be coming in to support her family. Shetika is taking unpaid time off work to emotionally support her children.


This fund will go toward Evelyn’s funeral, DaeDae’s hospital bill, and family expenses during this difficult season.
