Help a Brave Single Mother Stay in Her Home

Donation protected

Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

I'm reaching out on behalf of a courageous single mother who is in urgent need of support. Life has thrown her more than her fair share of challenges, and right now, she’s facing one of the hardest yet: the risk of losing her home.

This devoted mom is the sole provider for her 13-year-old son—a bright, kind young boy who dreams of one day becoming an engineer. She has worked tirelessly to provide a stable and loving environment for him, doing everything she can to make ends meet on her own. But over the past few months, her health took an unexpected turn. She became seriously ill and was unable to work during her recovery, which caused her to fall behind on rent.

Despite her strength, resilience, and willingness to fight through anything, the mounting bills became too much. Now, she’s at risk of eviction, with nowhere else to turn and no safety net to fall back on.

We are raising funds to help her catch up on rent, cover essential utilities, and give her the breathing room to get back on her feet. The money will go directly toward:

Paying past-due rent to avoid eviction
Covering basic living expenses such as electricity, water, and groceries
Supporting her during her continued recovery so she can return to work and regain stability
This mom has spent her life putting others first—especially her son. She's a pillar of strength, but even the strongest among us need a helping hand sometimes. With your kindness, we can help ensure that she and her son can stay in their home, stay together, and move forward with hope instead of fear.

Every donation, no matter how small, is a lifeline. If you're unable to give, please consider sharing this campaign. Your support means the world to this small family fighting to stay afloat.

Thank you for opening your heart.
