Help A Good-Hearted Person Get Back On Their Feet!
Donation protected
Hello friends!
We’re reaching out today on behalf of our amazing friend Lavantae, who is truly one of the most hardworking and kind-hearted people we know. We’ve known each other since middle school, and we’ve been together through the best, and worst of times. That being said, life has really hit him hard recently, and despite doing everything he can to stay afloat, he’s found himself in an incredibly tough spot.
Over the past year, he’s faced a string of devastating setbacks. He became a victim of credit card fraud that drained his already limited resources. On top of that, he was unknowingly sold a lemon of a car from a used dealership—one that broke down shortly after purchase, leaving him with a mountain of repair costs and no reliable transportation. All of this has added to his financial strain, making it harder to keep up with bills, work, and everyday life.
Additionally, Lavantae recently made a major life change, and decided to go back to school to study psychology! Not only is this huge because it can better his life all around, but he’s the first of his family to go to college! Between traveling to school and work, it’s now more than ever that he needs a means of transportation.
What’s most heartbreaking is that he’s not someone who asks for help! He works multiple jobs, always trying to improve his situation. He’s the kind of person who gives his best even when no one’s looking and lifts others up even when he’s struggling himself. But right now, he really needs a hand!
We’re turning to the kindness of others who might be able to chip in, even just a little. The funds raised will go toward covering urgent expenses like car repairs or a replacement vehicle, essential bills, and helping him get back on solid ground.
Every donation, no matter the size, would make a world of difference! And we understand that times are tough right now for everyone, and if you can’t give, please consider sharing this with others who might be able to.
Thank you for reading, and thank you for helping someone who truly deserves a break!
With Gratitude,
April, Sheila, Koty and Chris
