Help a mother and children move forward from abuse

I am raising funds for a dear friend who is in a domestic violence shelter with her children. I am keeping this anonymous to protect her daughters' privacy and due to ongoing investigations and legal processes. What I can tell you is they have a long road ahead of them and are in a shelter for the foreseeable future. They will need significant therapy, as well as support moving their belongings out of their home to temporary storage.

The mother is searching for a new job closer to the shelter and will be raising multiple children on a single income. The children's lives have been turned upside down, at the beginning of the school year, with their father out of the picture, moving to a new home with new rules, and moving to a new school. The younger children do not know why dad is gone; only that their lives will never be the same.

If you do not feel comfortable donating due to the anonymity or it is simply not something you can swing right now, I understand. However, if you can make even a small donation, I know that the mom will use the funds to help her daughters move forward with resiliency and without losing more than they already have.

Thank you for reading and for any support you can provide.
