Friend who lost husband

Hi, my name is Charlene and I’m trying to help my best friend raise money so she can stay in her home. Her husband passed on Thanksgiving day unexpectedly and he had no life insurance. She lives in northern Maine and will have difficulty paying the heating and other bills on one income. It’s bad enough that she has to do everything all alone now but needs to be able to keep her home and job since her nearest family is in Connecticut.
