Help a Family Stay Safe, Housed, and Together

Donation protected
No family should be fighting eviction - especially not a family doing everything they can to stay afloat.

I’m raising urgent funds for someone in my community - a friend and her family (two kids) - who are facing eviction after an unexpected series of financial setbacks. They’re doing their best to keep things stable, but the gap is too big and the timeline is too short. The eviction process has been started and they desperately need support NOW to keep their family safe and housed.

A minimum of $10,000 is needed - this fund will cover the immediate costs needed - rent, back-owed balance, and essential bills that have piled up while she’s been trying to stay above water.

This is someone who pours into everyone around her. Someone who shows up, works hard, and never asks for help. Someone who is terrified of losing her home with her children and who deserves stability, dignity, and support.

If you feel called to give - even $5, $10 - it genuinely helps keep a roof over their heads during the hardest season of the year.

Let’s show this family that community has their back. Let’s make sure they’re safe, and that their kids get to stay home for the holidays.

Their names are not being shared publicly and the family will remain anonymous due to the sensitive nature of their situation - but I can promise you: this support is going exactly where it’s needed.
All donations will go directly to them, the beneficiary, and no money will pass through me in this gofundme (which btw, hi! I'm Natalie - a concerned friend that deeply loves this family!)

I - and the family - deeply appreciate you for any support - for giving, for sharing. Thank you, thank you, thank you. <3
